Recommended Posts

I'm so jealous' date=' only lost 25 since surgery and sleeve 4/22. Maybe I should take my Nut advice to stop reading this forum.

Happy for all others success.[/quote']

We will all lose differently. Don't give up. I found eating avocado once a day helped boost my weight loss. Lots of Water and Gatorade, too. Don't forget your protein!

Wow, everyone is amazing, I haven't seem to have been able to lose as fast as most of you, but I'm moving along! I was sleeved April 10th, and I am at 41 pounds lost. I didn't do any pre-op dieting, so this is just all since surgery. I just really over the last two weeks have nailed down how to get all my Protein in and my Water and have started back at the gym.

I include my preop diet so really it's only 41 pounds via surgery

Nah I think may have you beat! Surgery 4/29

Pre-SW 233 (3days before, 9 weeks tomorrow))

LW 212.4

Bounced up to 217.4,

today 215.8

So officially 17.2! :-( including pre surgery.

I know this is how my body works, I know I'm a slow loser, I know my weight bounces like crazy, but this is still all playing with my head!

Hey i had surgery 4.29.13 and SW was 234 so we r pretty similar :)

I'm getting in 7-8 liquids a day and my NUT raised my Protein to 75-80, max 100. I'm averaging low nineties for almost two weeks . I am also exercising despite the pain nearly everyday. I don't know what to else to do except this week I lower my calories from 900 to under 600. Get on scale tomorrow for mid week weight. But I only record weight on Mondays. This Monday will be 11 weeks. 4/22. Hope down at least more than 2lbs. Thanks for the response !

Pre op 266

Sw 266

Cw 234

I tend to lose more weight when I up my calories rather than reduce them. I would say I average 650 to 900 a day. Although there are days when I'm not very hungry I do have these days where I feel the need to eat. I end up in the 900 range of calories but then I suddenly drop a few pounds. I guess it's my body's way of compensating.

Sleeved 4-15 I just saw my previous post from a while ago. Iam now down 55 pounds! I still cannot stand protien shakes. I was actually getting physically sick.. I would vomit them(no matter what brand I tried) and then I would get violent shakes and get dizzy. I'm fine unless I try to drink one. This sucks bc I have been having a hard time the last couple weeks getting all my Protein in from foods. I need 60grams a day. Other wise I have been doing good and feeling good. I need to get into a regular exercise routine.

      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.
