So I have noticed that a lot of people lose weight

Consistantly example 1-2lbs every week. My body does its in clusters. It will drop 3-7lbs in a matter of 1 day and then I won't lose for about 1-3 weeks. Weird. Anyone else like this?

I don't lose that much at a time, I'll lose 1-2 lbs over a week (.2 here, .6 there) then up and down for 2 weeks before I lose more. I get really discouraged in those few weeks. Then boom, a little more comes off...

I am the same way..... only my waiting periods in between weight loss is about 3-4 weeks. I am losing in stalls.... but still losing! :)

Doesnt help that I weigh first thing EVERY morning... This last 50 that I need to lose are going to be a b***h! :blink:

Yes, I lost all my weight that way. I would not lose anything for weeks, and then I would drop 5 lbs in a week. Then I would not lose again for weeks. I had to make sure to stay on track. It's easy to think "I may as well eat that piece of chocolate because I am not losing anyway"

I lose about a lb a week. During the week it'll go up and down a lb then eventually done another lb. That's my pattern.

I thought I was the only one. I lose 10-15 pounds then nothing for 3 weeks. It is SO discouraging. I know it's my body just adjusting but I can't help but think if I keep losing weight at this rate I'll be at goal in no time. :0)

      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.
