TY. When I'm at a stall or feel like I'm not seeing the weight loss. I take pix & compare or I go through clothes . I try on my bigger clothes & the clothes I had put away never "really" thinking I'd ever wear them again. This is one of the best decisions I've made!!?

Thanks for posting this... In my own weird way, I feel this was posted just for me! LOL I've had a tough time today with my eating, weight loss and worrying I will be a failure. I've lost 20 lbs in the last 5 weeks. I know being 50 I can't compare my weight loss to a 23 year old... It's a fact it comes off slower. Thanks for posting. I've cried off and on all evening... Hoping I've not done this for naught

Mastiff mama ,

You shouldn't try to compare your numbers to others for the simple reason everyone is different. Your only 5 weeks post op you lost 20 pounds that's great how else could u lose 4 pds a week? Don't beat yourself up, maybe it's a little bit of everything after the surgery that may have you blue . You didn't do this for nothing and its working ! No more crying chin up positive and happy thoughts . Sending you some love xoxo

      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.
