6 days out and down 13 lbs.



Recommended Posts

Does that sound normal? Maybe it was all Water weight or my body just seriously wants to rid itself of fat? Hmmm. I am trying hard to get in my Protein and water but it is seriously hard so far.

If that is from your pre surgery weight that is amazing! I was sleeved last Wednesday and this morning I am about 4 lbs down from my pre-surgery weight. After surgery was about 8lbs up from the liquids and swelling and it has seemed to go down about 2 lbs each day.

Keep up the good work!

I was down 10lbs in one week. Day of surgery 245 and one week out I was 235. Almost two weeks out I'm 226. I don't know what would be normal, but I think your loss is really good!! Congrats!!

Well I am 5'5" and day of surgery the scale said 239. This morning, it says 226. I just didn't expect it to come off so quickly. I certainly don't expect it to continue at this pace.

Your stats are the same as mine. I was shocked too at how fast it came off! Excited to see what the next few weeks will bring.

Congrats again!

      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.
