Congratulations to u and ur doing good so far on ur journey

Thank you! I don't feel like I'm doing particularly great, so some encouragement was nice to hear! Lol. I got down to about 308 before they gave me the date to go on my 2 week liquid diet and then I went on eat-a-palooza and gained about 10 pounds back. It was over Thanksgiving. :( Lol. They say that's a normal reaction but dammit!

Sounds like you might be burning more calories than you are taking in.. Working out 2-1/2 hours per day, and eating what's on the Dr. list? I think your exercising too much.. (Funny to hear that, huh?)

That's my guess.

Call your surgeon & get his/her opinion. I was told to 'walk' after surgery... That was it, 30 min per day.

My weight loss came to a halt when I wasn't taking in enough Protein & Water. I'm still working on that..

Ge'ee! Thanks, I was giving on any replies.... I've not tried much protien, and last night I made myself drink about a galion, as found out my body wanted more Water than I've been thinking I needed.

If one can help please feel free to share.

I was 276.4' date=' before surgery, now I'm 262.2, it's crazy how slow my weight is coming off, so I'm starting to get a little discouraged, but my doctor says everything is fine. I just got my first adjustment dec7,2012. Hopefully more weight will come off now. I havent told my family about my surgery, Only my husband because I didn't need any discouraging people in my life. It's not that you're hiding anything, it's just that you are doing the best that you can for you, this is about you, your health, your body!:):)[/quote']

I understand only my immediate family knows no one else. None of their business.

Hi guys... I too have over 100 lbs to loose. Pats on the back to al of us who have lost.... I am 5'7" and had my surgery 02/21/12. My starting weight was 340 and I am now at 247.... So 93 lbs gone. Discouraging sometimes because the weight I am now is the weight some people are starting at.... But I'm fighting the good fight as you all are. I'm thankful everyday that I am on this journey...this is a great thread to start!!!

Hey don't be discouraged! Some people are short! Look at how much weight you've lost and be PROUD - you should be!

      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.
