Surgery on June 24th. Heaviest Weight: 331 Current Weight: 302 - all lost post surgery. Nearly 30lbs lost so far! My stomach feels great, very little pain after surgery. Most surprising thing - I am constantly starving. I can only eat 1 1/2 T of food at a time - like only 1/3 of an egg. Then I get really full and can't take in anymore, but within an hour I am starving. My Protein intake is terrible! I am so sick of the Protein Shakes, I could barf. I try to force myself to drink at least 1c of shake or Isopure, but it is so hard. I am probably averaging 25g of protein a day. BIGGEST QUESTION - How much can everyone else eat 1 month out??

Amount lost at 1 Month post op: 28lbs

Sleeved 6/14.... And apparently in the midst of a 1 week (so far) stall. I even gained a lb and almost died. Lol.

I've since increased my Fluid and Protein (thanks to Sytranx Nectar) and hope that it will trigger some substantial loss. I wasn't getting anywhere near my Protein requirement, as I could barely stand Designer, Isoplus, and powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury supplements. I have yet to hit the gym, because I've just been toooo tired to do anything, and my poor sleeping habits aren't helping. So...here's hoping that next week produces some kind of change!

Hi everyone, my name is Jayme, my highest weight was 371, I weighed 354 the day of surgery, I had surgery June 28th 2013. I now weigh 325lbs, I've lost 29lbs since surgery which I just feel isn't as much as I thought I would lose. I had a two week stall in weightloss which was frustrating... I try to eat my Protein rather than do the shakes, I can't choke them down anymore. I eat several times a day, I can eat about a 1/4 of a cup at a time. I mainly eat fish, chicken, and lots of pico de gallo with avocado and lemon... those are my staple foods.

Ou look great. I had the stall too but you do start losing again. Just give it time. Just know that your face shows your weight loss. And if you're like me you can feel the weight loss.

Hi Beleive. I went into surgery weighing 360lbs, my surgery was June 3. You will get out of the stall, I promise and then you will lose like 10 lbs+. I stalled for 3 weeks, I was so frustrated, but then all of,the sudden it started back up and now 10 weeks out, I am down 60lbs. You can do it, just hang in there. I just hit another stall...at 300lbs, I think my body is playing games with me cause it knows how much I want to weigh in the 200's, so it's messing with me...lol Do you use myfitnesspal? You can look me up, if you want, see my diary, I eat very low carb and that's what works for me, under 40 carbs per day. I have lost a total of 136 lbs, counting pre op liquid diet and 4 week nutrition classes. Myfitnesspal username is blackcloudkygirl.

That's amazing!!! Congrats on the weight loss!! :-) it's definitely a tool amd not a cure all, I try to eat low can as well, on Sunday I don't limit myself, but every other day I am sure I'm under 20 grams of carbs... I don't have myfitnesspal, because my phone doesn't work right with it. I needed to read this.

      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.
