Does weight loss start slowing down the more you lose weight?
New&Improved replied to april042019's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
Well obviously the closer to your goal the less to shed so definitely the final 20-30lbs can take just as long as the first 100lbs. Just like ppl from 600lb life losing 100lbs the first month because they have 400 to lose. Most people need at least 6 months to lose 100lbs but it all comes down to your total EXCESS WEIGHT % for the best chance at success you need to be strict from day 1 follow your plan to the letter!! -

New&Improved replied to Selena_Sarajevo's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I really hope the doctor know what they're doing with the central line. if I remember correctly they will tell you not to breathe for a moment while they push through and there might be a sensation as the line goes in -

Was told not to lose weight or surgery would get denied.
New&Improved replied to Soon2bSleeved12/2019's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Wow so much backwards mentality; you should be so lucky if you can shed any lbs before surgery that doesn't negate all the years you've been obese and suffering!! -

Anyone else scheduled for October?
New&Improved replied to pssk's topic in Gastric Bypass Surgery Forums
Not getting too serious until nearer to surgery.. Surgeon didn't specify an amount to lose but adapting with preop diet and mentally preparing for surgery and life afterwards. Even so I am making little changes but will start shakes only diet before surgery to fully detox and prepare and shrink liver. Have stocked up on protein powders and plan to live off shakes for as long as possible. -
