i am 4 weeks post op also and have not lost any weight. i have gained a couple of pounds. i think it is because we just got off of the liquid diet and we are now eating. our body is adjusting to the band. From what i have read on this site that once we get adjusted we will start to lose weight. i will be adjusted on nov. 9th. i had my surgery 9/22. hopefully if we follow our nutrionists rules about eating we will start to lose weight. good luck.

Remember that it is normal not to lose weight at this point.

The real weight loss will begin once you get your fills and achieve some level of restriction.

Hang in there till then, it will get better!

I had my surgery on 9/15/2010 and my first fill is on 9/25/2010. I hope I will start to lose weight.

I had my surgery in Feb 2010. I didnt start "LIKING" my band until July. I finally had restriction after 3 fills. Now im so in LOVE. Just hang in there it will get easier. In face I gained 15 pound when I came home from surgery.. all the fluids they give you in the hospital is the real reason you gain afterwards. Once your body gets used to this object in your body you will see results! TRUST ME.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
