Recommended Posts

I'm a month post op, I think this week I've hit a stall. I've lost 30lbs so far. I think because I'm not walking much, it is hard it's been so cold and snowing here and now of course I am sick. I try to eat about 4 oz of Protein, and something on the side but I don't really weigh my food anymore, unless its something like lox then I weigh it.

I was sleeved 2/7/2013 and have lost 26 including preop, 16 of it since surgery. I lost 13 lbs in the first 10 days and have been losing slow for the past 3 weeks. The scale didn't move for about 2 weeks. It sucks, but I am following my Dr's orders (currently in the soft food phase). I was still on full liquids when it slowed down. 60+ g Protein, 64+ oz Water, and 600-800 cal. I'm trying to keep my carbs low, but my Calcium supplements account for most of them. I am walking 3-4 times per week, so mathematically, I should be losing over 2-3# per week. I wish!

I will be one month post op this week. I have lost 43 pounds, including my 10 day pre op diet. I have been on a stall for about ten days ( I'm guessing it has something to do with my period - I've had that the past ten days, too.) I am frustrated, any ideas on what I can do? I'm DYING to work out because I know it will help.. But my doc won't clear me for another 2.5 weeks for physical activity.

I know I only lost 20lbs this month. I think the people who loose more weight more. I was 245 now 225. It's true for most people who have a lot more to loose they will see more weight loss the 1st month.

Crazy how mostly everyone stalls on the 3rd week. I was stalled for about 2 weeks. Hopped on scale yesterday and now down 2 lbs. Hopefully no more stalls anytime soon.

I've been bouncing between 241 and 239 for two weeks! Grr. I'm down about 23 pounds since surgery though. I'm eating about 1/4 to 1/2c a meal. My surgery date was 2/12.

      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.
