5 months today - 58 lbs lost. Only 16 more to go! Like others, I bounce up and down a pound or two - for a week or two at a time, then lose 1 or 2 lbs. And then bounce around again. I just keep doing the program, exercising, drinking my Water. I'm sure I will reach goal, but it may take a little time.

I was also sleeved 12/17. I have lost 45 lbs and wore a 24 preop. I was in 2x t-shirts but today wore a large and it fit well. It's only in the last week or so I have tried smaller clothes. More people have noticed the weight loss when I wear clothes that fit. Most of my weight is still in my hips and thighs so still in size 20 pants but the 18s almost fit. So although I am losing slowly it is still a consistent 2 lbs per week.

Keep up the good work. I think you'll notice some change in the near future. I think we are on a similar track

I was stalled forever. Recently I joined my fitness pal, and tracking food seems to have helped. I wish I had done it sooner. Good luck to you

Sleeved 12/26/12, down 76 pounds. Have my follow-up next week hopefully he will be happy, last time I was scolded for not losing enough. This will only be my 3rd visit with him, hopefully I can get more direction to keep losing.

That's ridiculous my dr is happy with a loss 1 lb or 30! He would actually like a 2 lb lost a week he says that's good pace! But good luck your doing awesome

      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.
