6 Weeks Out Weight Loss Slow Hate The Scale But Pictures Help



Recommended Posts

I'm six weeks out today and was really frustrated with the scale but continue to walk everyday. Yesterday my son made a slide show of before and after pictures and that made me feel so much better. Still have a ways to go but loving the progress so far.

Looking great! The scale can't differentiate between Water, muscle, and fat. Photos don't lie. Keep your spirits up. You are doing a great job!

Thanks everyone I feel great. I'm down two sizes in clothes. According to the scale I've lost 25 pounds. I've had a couple stalls but notice once it's over I'll lose alot at once. I am walking five miles a day and doing intervals of jogging at .25 miles. Most of all I am happy.

Wow! You look absolutely great!!!! Keep it up.......I might be losing the lbs but definitely don't feel too much difference in my clothes. People only notice the weight loss in my face......at some point maybe my face will disappear while the rest just settles on my knees! You look fabulous...pictures show the amazing transformation in you!

You rock it girl!

Thanks. Have you taken before and after pictures and compared. Before these pictures I swore I wasn't losing any weight. I think it's harder for us to notice.

      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.
