I'm officially 4 mos today, and I have lost 10 lbs this month so far. In October, I hit a terrible stall for the entire month with no weight loss. I decided to work out which before I didn't and I upped my Water in take...and it knocked me out of my stall.

My nut told me the average weight loss is from 1-3 pounds a week. I just went through a 4 month stall but finally started dropping again. I have lost 5 lbs in the past 2 weeks. Of course I just became a caregiver to my parents with moving them in with us so I had to change our eating habits to support their dietary needs. What ever it is I am only 5 lbs now from my goal. Dont worry and it will take happen.

You can see my weight loss in my signature. I averaged my weight loss starting month 4 and it has been 3-4% of my body weight each month.

      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.
