I am wondering if anybody else's nut put them on solids at 6 weeks? I have been able to eat a lot of different things just a heck of a lot less. I'm still not getting in Protein or Water the way I am supposed to. Well as far as the protein I need it's a financial thing. And I can't stand the powders tastes like chalk! I'm lost I was 306 at my 2 week visit and at my 6 week I was 275 now 270. I'm a supper slow loser and right now I am feeling lost!!! I was sleeved 2-5-13. Any alternate suggestions or answers would really be appreciated. Thanks for letting me vent!

36 pounds in 9 weeks is 4 pounds a week--so I would not say that is super slow! In fact, it is probably above average. Congrats!!!!!

Thank you Tes I just don't know if by me not getting my appropriate amount of daily Protein in if I was harming myself and causing the weight loss to stop. I do manage to get on my elliptical about 15 minutes 3x's a week doing at least 3 miles.

That's great! You should get in the protein however you can. have you tried adding unflavored to Soup or yogurt?

31 lbs in 4 weeks is "super slow"? That's almost 8 lbs a week - over a pound a day! Don't get unrealistic in your expectations - you're doing amazingly well!!!

For those of you that are experiencing stalls, please list your starting weight and when you experienced your stall. I have a sneaky suspicion on what causes these stalls, but need a little input before I spout off.

I'll go first - I was sleeved on 2/22 and have not experienced a stall yet (keeping fingers crossed). My starting weight was 335. I am not 298. If you are uncomfortable listing your weight, your BMI will also work.

      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.
