I've lost 48 lbs. with 56 to go to get to my goal weight, and 42 lbs. left to get to my doctor's goal.

Progress has been really great though there have been stalls as expected.

Sometimes I worry that I won't make it to goal, or even near it. It's almost like so far it has been too good to be true and the dream will end just like past diets resulted in regain plus extra. I still get tempted, still crave things I shouldn't eat and sometimes I indulge, I skip exercise more than I should.

When we're you sleeved? I was sleeved on 11/5 and have been in a 2 wk stall! I feel like I'm never gonna lose again...lol

Maybe your first stall is mentally the worst;)

I am just having my first stall right now. I am fluctuating between 1 - 2 pounds for 2 weeks, I Haven't let it get to me yet. I notice that all of your dr's gave you a goal, the company I went through lets you do that yourself. There is support meetings all the time and have been amazing.

My doctor didn't tell me my goal. I just happened to find out when I asked the nurse who was weighing me why she said I had lost a certain percentage of my weight to a goal and I knew I hadn't told her my goal. I asked her how did she come up with the number. She said that there is a guide that they use. It is 14 lbs more than the more common formula of 100 lbs for 5' tall and 5 more lbs for each inch over that.

Surgery on 3/9 down 69 lbs, 10 lbs to get to my personal goal. The scale has not really moved much in months but that's my fault. Back on track for the new year.

I also had my done on 3/9/12 i was at 262 and now 189 and also the scale has not moved very much for me either so sad. But i guess it will start moving soon i hope. 73 pounds lost my personal goal was a 100. But i changed it since that doesn't look like that is going to happen so my new goal weight at least 175. I am only 5 feet so that is still heavy for my height.

      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.
