1 1/2 weeks out....and I feel good!!!



Recommended Posts

So I am 1 1/2 weeks out and I am feeling good. I have exersized for 3 days. I am not getting as hungry as I used to and I feel like I am eating right. I am seeing a steady loss of .5 to .75 lbs a day. I have not gotten choaked. I just burp more than I used to. No big deal. I know that things will slow down and im sure the hard part is yet to come, but I am very pleasantly suprised. I have my first follow up apt with my Dr on Wednesday. I am looking forward to it.

This is a comforting post. I have not had surgery yet, and I hope my experience is like yours. I am glad you are doing so well. Good luck in the coming weeks/months.

You sound like u r doing quite well! It sounds like you have it down pack! As long as your r exercising your weight loss will be moving right along. I don't have any Fluid in my band right now so I just have to follow the diet plan and exercise. Will be getting a fill in the beginning of Sept. Good luck to you!

I have about the same amount as you, I started out at 200, lost 17 lbs. before surgery diet, had my surgery one week ago and now have lost another 5 lbs. slow and steady, want to get down to 125. I am short, 5 foot 3 and small boned so that should be good. I was trying to do that weight ticker, found the site, went in and set it up and then how do I get it back onto here? thanks for the help and good luck.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      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.
