15 so far in the last couple weeks surgery should be the 28th. Hoping for another eight which puts me right at 35bmi. I want to start as low as possible I'm a slow loser.

I've lost 11 pounds since Sunday!! LOL.. got on the scale this morning.. 364.0!!! I can't believe I just typed my weight!! Yes, the weight I will NEVER be again!!!

Oh, my resp. therapist tried to weigh me on a 350lb max scale.. When I told her it wouldn't weigh me, she didn't believe me!! LOL... That was funny!

In my Kaiser Options group classes I had to attend, we had to lose 10% of our weight. I started the classes on June 1st. By the time I had my surgery on Oct 25th, I had lost 52 pounds on my own... :) :)

10lbs is still good! did u cheat?

I was real good until the 9th day when I got that call on a Friday telling me my insurance would not cover the hospital and I could not have my surgery. WTH-eck. So I got angry and rebelled for a day but quickly got back on track after asking for forgiveness. I found another sugeon and life is good. No doubt I would have lost more if they'd left me alone. But if I had not got that call I would have been banded. so it turned out to be a blessing.

I remember thinking the same thing when I posted my starting weight!

I can't believe I just typed my weight!! Yes, the weight I will NEVER be again!!!

But you will never have to type that again (except when you are celebrating how far you've come!)

I was required to lose 10 and I ended up losing 20...over the course of 6 months...it wasnt all at once during pre-op. We had to lose 10% of excess body weight before they would schedule the surgery.

      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.
