Pollyanna12 74 Posted April 22, 2012 I am down about 35 since my preop but 45 since the first of the year. I weigh on Tuesdays (why Tuesdays? I have NO idea!) I have alot ot lose so, it goes pretty quick. I have noticed it slowed alot since I started mushies amd soft food. Before that my average calories were about 650 - 750 a day.

flab u less 45 Posted April 22, 2012 I am only asking because I am staying the same since my week 2. I weighed 211 and this morning I weighed 208.8.. I exercise every day and give it my all. So its gonna come off. Wish I wasn't so addicted to my scale Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fozzy22193 0 Posted April 22, 2012 I am down 24 lbs since being banded. I was also banded on the 19th. I try to get between 1000-1200. If I do too many days below that I stop losing. The other big thing for me is Water. I have to drink at least 72 oz a day or I don't lose. It seems like I am on the high side of the calories. I don't know how others are getting by on so few.

Fozzy, are you a large man or a petite woman? Caloric intake won't be the same for all of us. And exercise is a factor too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jackieu 19 Posted April 22, 2012 I am so addicted to the scale I get on everyday when I wake up. I think I am going to try skipping a week because I went 10 days without losing anything and I was really getting frustrated so maybe not such a good idea to get on everyday. I am going on 6wks post op this tues. And I am down 30lbs=). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

fozzy22193 0 Posted April 22, 2012 Jepegurl- I am a woman. I am 5'8 and started this at 350lbs. I burn on average about 3200 calories a day. I wear a link armband, so I am confident in my calorie burn. I work out 4-5 times a week and have been tracking my food and Water religiously since January. I also weigh daily.
