3 weeks post op and haven't lost any more weight.. :(



Recommended Posts

Thursday will be week 3 for me. At surgery I weighed in at 271... When I went in for my one week post op, I had dropped to 257... I just bought a scale and I am still at 257 lbs. ... This means I haven't lost or gained anything in 2 weeks... This was just a depressing moment :( sorry for the rant but I really needed to scream at this one...

My doctors scale is always different than mine. Don't be discouraged, go weigh in at the doctors office, or use yours as a starting point today and check again n a week :-). Good luck!

Like Sarah said all scales are different... On my scale im always 2 pounds lighter than on my mom's scale and teh doctor's scale always shows a 5 pound difference,

You may also be losing inches, are you measuring? Your body needs time to adjust to teh changes it going through.

My recommendation is wait another week if you still see no change go to your NUT and see if they can adjust your diet a little.

I keep stalling out whenever I don't eat enough.

I only lost 2 pounds from my week two check up until the day before my one month check up. I went 13 days going up and down over those two pounds while exercising and eating 200-300 calories a day.

The day after my appointment, I started losing again. Those 13 days sucked donkey arse, but the scale did start moving again, thankfully!

      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.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
