How Far From Goal Where You Before Weight Loss Slowed Down By A Lot?



Recommended Posts

My goal is to be between 120-150 lbs. I am 5'6, 282 now (about 12 pounds less since I started researching WLS.) I was lighter a few years ago, and a work out junky, and started to plateau around 198. I am sure it will be different afterwards, and I am sure it varies per person, but at what weight did the weight stop coming off fast? For me I'd guess around 160.

Kiki I really don't know what goal i Will have I guess I'll just have to wait and see what I look like in different stages (I though maybe around 145-150 I'm 5'4) I used to weigh 128 but I look sickly so I'll just wait and see

I'm 14 months post-op and my weight loss went like this:

January-17 lbs

February-8 lbs

March-9 lbs

April-8.5 lbs

May-4 lbs (still don't know what happened--same calories and activity as April)

June-9 lbs

July-6 lbs

August-8 lbs

September-3.5 lbs (started to add carbs)

October-6.5

November-5 lbs

Dec and January--I had reached my goal of 150 on Nov 15 and was attempting to maintain. Had gallbladder surgery Nov 30 and facelift Jan 4. Lost 12 more pounds over the two months, now maintaining at 138.

Hope this helps!

That's cool. When is your surgery? Or when did you have your surgery?

I leave tomorrow for Tijuana and will have my surgery Monday

      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?

      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.
