I hit my stall a week out! Just broke it a week and a half later. You'll start losing again soon! This happens to almost everyone from what I've seen.

I agree Dee. I know I've lost a nice amount but I expected to lose more. When you hear of people losing 30 lbs in 2 weeks and you only lose half of that its kind of a bummer.

I finally got back to the gym today. I only did 20mins on the elliptical because I didn't know how my body would react and I didn't want to over do it. It felt good. Then I did 20laps in the pool. I am really amazed at how much more energy I have. Normally after I get home from dropping my kids off at school I go back to sleep cause I'm so tired but lately I'm wide awake.

I hope so

Yeah, I didn't loose any weight for 8 days and that was right after the Surg. But now it's starting to move down again at about 3/4 lb a day BUT also remember that someone who's 300+ lbs is gonna drop much more weight than someone who's 200+ you know. So really you can't compare yourself to others. Make sure you eat so you can keep your metabolism going and get enough Protein so you don't loose muscle.

Pretty soon you'll be sharing your before and after pics ; )

Good luck

      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.
