Awe! Don't stress too much. Follow and trust the process. It's early of the weight to be falling off. There is no way to live a skinny persons lifestyle and remain obese. It WILL happen. Just be patient with yourself.

you are in the "honeymoon" phase. I am also. I was banded on 7-10. I was losing great and then when you start introducing more foods back into your diet your body has to adjust. I have had one small fill. I'm currently at 3 cc in my band. I eat small portions so it is hard to believe that i'm not dropping weight like crazy but our bodies have to adjust to all the changes and different ways of our eating. Hang in there.

I was told the reason i only lost 2lbs in one month. I was told to increase my exercising to five days a week for at least an hour and to make sure I get the proper Protein and eat protein first.

      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.
