To all the May sleevers:

CONGRATS!! Congrats!! CONGRATS!! You are all doing great and are such an inspiration!!! As I read each of your posts, I envision where I'll be in a couple of weeks (surgery date: June 6)

I know I will be impatient & wanting the weight just to fly away but have to remember that I didn't gain all this weight in a few weeks!!!!!

Best of luck for your continued success!!!

~~~ See you on the loser's bench soon!!!!!~~~

Surgery May 6th. I've lost 29 lbs since the beginning of March this year. I've lost 23% of my excess weight in 3 months!

Since surgery I had a 2 week stall that just broke, day 11 post op thru day 25, I was stuck at 205. It was extremely frustrating, but my goal is to lose 12 lbs a month and I'm still on track so it's not so bad. I'm eating 300-500 calories each day. I'm only eating about 3 oz of actual food everyday and not enough Water, about 32-40 oz.

Height. 5'1"

Highest wt 232

PreOp diet wt. 227

Surgery wt. 216

Current wt. 203

Goal wt 125

Thanks everyone for posting your updates. It's exciting to see how well you're all doing. Good luck to everyone on their journey.

lala, I feel a little better after reading your post...my first two weeks post-op I lost 20 lbs and was feeling optimistic..since then I have lost only about 2 lbs and nothing in this past week...like ramirelek, I am following the program--just walking so far for exercise..I probably could be getting some more Water in daily...but still I am quite discouraged...it helps to know you had a 2-week stall but started losing again

Drop the "only" from that statement, Ramirelek! :) You've lost 12.4 lbs in 3 weeks, so that's 4 lbs PER week! Think about that...if you kept up that rate of loss, you'd lose 200 lbs in a year. You're doing great!

      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.
