I'm at almost 3 weeks and have only lost 10lbs, 8lbs in week 1, .5lbs in week 2 and looks like it might be 1.5lbs in week 3 but I don't weight in until Tuesday, I think our bodies are still adjusting to the newness. I hope it gets better for you. I guess my only advice would be is to try and get a few workouts in. I'm having a hard time with that one as well.

Sleeved on 2/5, including pre-op I have lost 45 lbs. Probably 25 lbs since surgery although it has tapered off the last couple of weeks. Last week I lost 2 lbs. starting exercise regimen today and hopefully the couch to 5 k program. I would appreciate any tips on how to get the most from this wonderful 'tool' especially any diet tips to help melt more off. Thanks!

Sleeved 2/21 and down 21.5lbs since surgery. Seems like I'm stalling now but I expected that. Just work on getting in all of your Water. I think this is most important in aiding with the weight loss. Also I haven't been cleared for the gym yet but I walk the track for 30-45 minutes a day to get some movement in and it helps...not too mention I want these thighs to go down...lol...Good luck!

Sleeved 2/21 and down about 25 pounds. But, that is 15 pre-op and 10 post-op. I haven't done any exercise. I go this afternoon for my 2 week post op appointment with my doctor. I guess I will find out then what I can do exercise wise. I too have trouble with Protein. I cannot do the shakes. I get my protein through eggs, Peanut Butter, yogurt. I have tried all the different Protein Shakes. Makes me want to vomit just thinking about them. Kudos to the sleevers that can drink them. Good luck to everyone!!

Sleeved 2-25. Down 24 total. 16 pre op and 8 since surgery. I'm a little discouraged with only 8 lbs in 2 weeks. I will admit that I'm having trouble getting all if my required calories and Protein in.

      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.
