No game 14,437 Posted February 14, 2013 You can do it! Really don't worry about the scale right now! There will plenty of time for that after the surgery... I should know, I'm one of those crazy daily step on the scale people. Oh and drink your water:p Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
zoriahdiana5 56 Posted February 14, 2013 Thanks ladies. N thanks again for the reminder on the Water intake cuz I need it. Lol Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using VST Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cartmansnj 105 Posted February 14, 2013 You really do need to drink your Water. That is key. If you cant do it with just water, add it to crystal light or something sugar free and low calorie that you like. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SoCalDixieGal 172 Posted February 14, 2013 I too was very frustrated on the preop because I felt like I was starving but the scale barely moved. Then when I was weighed before surgery it was surprising! Scale had certainly moved! Lost 10 of the 11 lb goal. Just stick with it and like they said, ignore the scale for now . . . . And more water!

Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using VST I was like that to on my liver shrinking diet didn't lose anything for a week then stepped on the scale and dropped 3 more lbs, don't sweat the small stuff sweetie. Don't be a slave to the scale it will make you crazy just do what you are suppose to do and you will be fine. Here are some tips for weighting in: 1. Only weigh once a week 2. Weigh after you have had your first run to the rest room, you will be surprised how much poop and pee weigh....lol 3. never weigh after a meal or before you go to bed, you will be disappointed. 4. WEIGH IN THE MORNING AFTER YOU PEE AND POOP..... 5. NEVER WEIGH YOURSELF MORE THAN ONCE A WEEK I know I repeated myself but it was for a reason it is important.....And remember you are beginning a lifestyle change, embrace it and have fun with it.......

joatsaint 2,814 Posted February 14, 2013 4. WEIGH IN THE MORNING AFTER YOU PEE AND POOP..... I really agree with #4. Weighing in the morning before you eat or drink makes for a pretty good baseline for tracking weight. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DivaNurse 171 Posted February 14, 2013 I used to work for a weight loss center and we had a client we weighed her, then she said wait i need to go to the rest room first and i will be darn if she wasn't 5 lbs lighter........ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

melissa130 135 Posted February 14, 2013 if u think getting your Water in now is difficult ---- it is harder after surgery. And if you don't get the water in, and take it seriously, you will become dehydrated-and end up in the hospital. Just saying. Good luck to you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
