Recommended Posts

This is super exciting...though I see that I have lost those 7 pounds in my neck lol. That's the only area I can see any difference in.

5 more days till I get banded!!! 76 pounds more to go!

Share your weight loss...especially your pre-op weight loss.

Everyone's body is different. Have you weighed yourself? 3 days for you!

Has anyone's DR given them a weight loss goal (like 10 pounds) before surgery or they wouldn't do the surgery? Mine said 10 but tomorrow is my weigh in and I think I will be at 9?

SWFL here! My surgery is Oct 15. I've been on my 6mth supervised diet for 7 mths now. I've lost 29 lbs. Dr said a month ago just needed to lose 5 lbs before surgery, that was 10lbs ago. No liquid diet before surgery, yay!!!

Best wishes to all!

Yeah I weighed myself Tuesday & I had only lost 6 lbs in a week. I thought for sure I would lose more on a liquid diet.

Same here..I only lost 5 in a week.

I've been a liquid diet since since 9/11 (1000 calories a day) haven't cheated at all and I don't feel like I've lost a lot of weight. I'm kinda of discouraged, I'm going to be banded in 2 days.

      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.
