I was sleeved 6/26/12 and I've lost 47 lbs since surgery. But 71 in total from my highest weight ever.

What weight did you start out at? Those with less to lose tend to lose slower than heavier people.

Im 3 months post-op and I think I should of lost more then what the scale says. :angry:

Just be patience and continue to do the right things and stop watching tthe scale. You did not get heavy over night and the weight lost is not healthy if you lose it to fast either. Get your self a wii and give your self a goal every month and make your goal small.

If you keep a food log in addition to keeping a exercise log this way you can make changes so you don't stall.

One more thing you are different from everybody else. There is no correct amount to lost at any given time.

I three months I stall on the weight lost but I was losing inches off my waist.

My goal is a min of 5lbs a month.

I'm a couple days away from 3 months and have lost 36, with another 54 to go. I started at 227. Reading these other posts, I'm realizing that apparently I'm a slow loser :( My goal is to lose at least 5 pounds a month, I just don't want to get disappointed if I don't make my goals.

I'm gonna annoy some people.....but, come on! These numbers you all are mentioning are FANTASTIC!!!! It's pounds that are coming off and you'll never see again! That's the miracle of this surgery. Not that it's coming off 'slowly.' If you really wanted to lose it quickly then you picked the wrong surgery, should have done the bypass.

As long as you are following your program and exercising, it will come off. Stop beating yourselves up. Enjoy the process! It really is a miracle what is happening to our bodies. So stop comparing yourself to others. It's all apples and oranges. :-)

      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.
