Average weight loss



Recommended Posts

I have lost 53 pounds since surgery on 09/22/10. I just started working out (jogging on the treadmill) 2 weeks ago. The scale does not show all the progress. Take measurements of your body. I have had several stalls that last 2 weeks but then all of a sudden I drop 5 pounds in 2 days. I just like to think about how this tool is a lifelong tool and the weight will not come back because my stomache will never be able to hold and entire pizza again!!!

biggrin.gif By next week I'll definitely be there.... 0.1lbs to go.... and we're away for almost 3 weeks so no weigh in for me, which will be hard, but I actually find it easier to diet as we go away in our motorhome so less distractions around to tempt me! So I'l hoping for a good next weigh in! biggrin.gif

      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.
