I am 1 week post op today. The morning of my surgery I weighed 582lbs. This morning my scale reads 550. Is my scale broke or am I doing something wrong? This just doesn't seem real.

How much did you weigh pre op?

The more obese, the faster/greater the loss (with exceptions). Keep strictly following your program and best of luck!!!

Wow that is great!!!

How long did you have to do pre op diet? I only ask because I started at 399 and my doctor had me do a 37 day pre op diet. I still have 10 days to go. I have lost 23 pounds. I hope I still have a huge weight loss like you after surgery.

My doctor didn't require it a pre-op diet. I was shocked when I weighed in on surgery day.

My surgery weight was 470 and I lost 21lbs in my first week. So that is a very possible number! My numbers haven't been quite as impressive in following weeks but have logged some type of loss each week ranging from 0.4-12! Keep up the great work! I'm down 75 lbs in 16 weeks, I'm happy with my steady pace :)

      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.
