Hello there everyone, I'm 33, about 5'5, weighed in at 335 the day of surgery and I know everyone's different but I'm just wondering what others around my size and height have lost, no matter what timeframe, I'd greatly appreciate it. Surgery 9/12 current weight 320. :) thanks <3

I was 345lbs to start, surgery June 18th down 48lbs, I think it's rather slow compared to other diets I've been on but I know that it's not coming back on, so I'm ok with the pace...,

I'm 25, 5'5.5 and started at 325. On the day of surgery I was 321. I'm down 43 pounds total so far and am a little over 8 weeks out.

I also started at 335 lbs. however, I am a guy and am 5'11" so don't know if we are comparing apples to apples. 3 months now, I am down about 90 lbs. however, it has been a little slow lately. I have to admit I eat pretty cleanly, eat about 100 gram Protein a day, drink at east 100 oz a day and my exercise is very moderate ( mostly walking 2-4 miles a day, sometimes skip a day). I am fairly laid back abut it, keep my stress levels low, try and sleep enough ( trying to get better, probably average 7 hours, but sometimes only 5 hours). Life has certainly become much more enjoyable since the surgery for myself. I no longer am tormented by the effects of eating bad food and having blood sugar levels mess with my behaviors and outlook on life).

      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.
