PREOP DIET WEIGHT 385

SURGERY DATE 367

TODAY: 327

I guess im losing at alright pace, basically with preop diet its 60 pounds in 10 weeks. Always like to have more, but i guess beggers cant be choosey. No issues whatsoever, never had pain, no reflux or gas...was crazy easy. Can drink whatever i want and eat whatever i want...i have stuck to my diet, but know that eating is/will be easy...no cravings whatsoever and i dont see it being a problem sticking to it...

What do you think? Am i on a good pace or am is slow loser?

Sounds great to me!!! Are you exercising too? I ask because I am about 2 weeks out and haven't started exercising yet... I am "moving", but not hitting the treadmill yet... just wondering if and when you started!

Keep up the good work!

A 40 lbs. since surgery itself in 2 months is great....I'd say anything over 3 lbs. a week average is great. And just remember, even if you do lose slower than you'd like, it's less loose skin you'll have at the end because it'll have more time to catch up so to speak. Good luck and keep it up.

Good Job, Congratulations. I feel that getting more energy and feeling healthier is more important then the numbers on the scale so how fast the numbers go down isn't that important in my opinion.

I'd say that's crazy fast! I can only hope mine will drop that fast. I was sleeved 12-31 and have lost 21. I, too, had no complications and have been able to tolerate all food and liquids. I can't believe how easy my recovery was!

      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.
