Starting Weight 260

Day of Surgery 248

Today 249.5 :angry: Can't wait to be on losers bench!

You've obviously recently had surgery. I was over 10 pounds heavier than the morning I went to have my surgery when I first weighed myself my first morning home after surgery. It took me a whole week to lose all those 10+ surgery pounds. I will tell you that when my weight loss sped up it got a little exciting, even though I remind myself every morning that here in the beginning those numbers are going down fast because I can eat such small low calorie portions and my resting metabolic rate is still so high because I weigh so much and when I am exercising (cautiously walking because I am still less than 2 weeks post op) the shear weight of my body is working with me so that I am burning more calories without as much work.

Please don't be angry... You're almost to the loser's bench...

Oh, and I forgot:

Starting pre-op weight: 338.0

Day of surgery: 325.5

Today, 10 days post op: 315.0

I'm not sure where everyone is counting their total loss from, but I am doing day of surgery as my start weight. So... Total loss, 10.5 pounds.

Congratulations everyone on your losses.

Starting weight 234

Surgery day 4/30/12 215

Last week 185

I've done zero exercise this week because of back pain. It's getting better so hopefully next week I'll lose a few more pounds than this week.

I'm still happy with 3 pounds though! :-)

      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.
