Mine lasted a little over a week. Try to get all your fluids in because that's what helped me through it. Don't get frustrated like I did because I even gained a few pounds. The scale will start moving again.

I was sleeved may 3rd. I'm on my 2nd stall. Its hard not to get discouraged. I've only lost 19.5 since surgery. I know that's still good but I just want my scale to move. Even if its a pound a week!

I was sleeved 05.08.13 and have lost 26 lbs, but alot was lost first 2 weeks. I am losing about 1-2 lbs a week and my doc said that is so normal. States will pick back up around 3 months out. I'm very happy with my loss and try to stay focused on making the healthiest choices a habit. The weight will take care of itself.

So happy to see that I'm not the only one who has gained weight on 600 calories a day. I was sleeved 28 May and had lost 32lbs since pre op diet but then I stalled and put on 5lbs last week. It made me very anxious and depressed but feeling a little better now. Roll on the end of this stall so I can get happy on the scales again! Lol.

I wanted to say I got some excellent advice when I was told to measure myself as well as weigh because you'll lose inches when you don't lose pounds. In the past five days I lost one pound and I lost 6 3/4 inches. That made me very happy!!!

      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.
