that's a lot of weight you should feel so happy :) I on the other hand am not feeling so happy I noticed I only lost 3lbs in September I did a lot of walking and even started using the incline on the treadmil I've lost 59lbs. I don't know if I'm doing something wrong? Or if this is how slow the weight will come off? I had surgery on 6/13/13 I am happy with the weight I've lost but it sure is coming off very slow :(

It took me a year to lose 100 pounds. I had lots of stalls. I laughed at them and they went away.

Time and science is strong kung fu.

Just keep working your plan. The weight loss slows down some but you have made amazing progress. Don't backslide and you will be at goal before you know it! I know the feeling, I am in the same boat. 21lbs to go, but I have faith in my program and progress. You should as well...you've done great so far! We can do it! :)

I think we are in the same boat. I was sleeved 6/13/13 and have lost 48 since then. My weight loss has slowed to about 1 pound a week. It gets discouraging but at least the number is going down not up.

      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.
