How Much At One Month?



Recommended Posts

4 weeks out today 27 pounds! Haven't list anything in a few days. This must be the the start of the stall? Finally feeling normal again so I think it might be time to throw myself back into exercise.

you guys don't know what a slow loser is....It's ME - since 9/10 I have lost 11 pounds - I hit the 3 week stall and have stayed there ever since....so 20+ pounds lost at one month is absolutely awesome. although I have lost 11 inches (and more I'm sure' date=' but I don't measure until Friday's). this damn stall and reading all these posts of ' boo hoo I've only lost 25 pounds' is making me crazy......it's like what the Heck is wrong with me???? it's very upsetting, it's like - wow out of thousands of sleevers - I'm going to be the one it doesn't work for. I'm not depressed, I'm pissed - severely pissed off. Had such a easy recovery - no reflux (don't take the PPI as I don't need it), no nausea hardly any pain. been on solids since week 3......but nothing is happening weight wise. I feel like I have this target on my back since everyone at the office knows I have had the surgery and are looking at me like 'looks like that didn't work for her...., or geez I don't see any difference.

I am just freaking totally pissed - glad everyone else is losing like champions and happy for you guys....but geez, when will it be my turn?

ok - off my soapbox....[/quote']

I hit the three week stall at two weeks. I stayed in it for the next 5 weeks. During that time I never exceeded 600 calories, I started mild exercise, I got in all my Water and Protein, and I kept my carbs below 20 grams daily. When my stall broke I lost 12 lbs in 14 days. And now, today is my five month date and I am down 81 lbs from 255 to 174. Don't worry that you are stalled. Worry about what you can control, which is what you put in your mouth and how much you move your body.

There are others who have lost faster than I have - but it is not my failure. I am choosing how I treat my body and feel confident that this is the most success I could have at this time.

Don't beat yourself up - your stall will break.

14 days out down 9 lb slow is right but I'll take it even with my walking 5 mils a day ;)

I totally understand the feeling of everyone expecting u to be thin in a month. I am at about 20 pounds since surgery 5 weeks ago. Didn't measure but know I have lost some inches so frustrating!!

      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.
