I'm in although I haven't had surgery yet. I'm trying to lose for me now so that hopefully after surgery it's not so hard. I have been doing a Protein Shake for Breakfast for the past month & a half. I'm officially down 10.5 lbs since march 5. This week I lost 3.5 lbs, I'm at 286

Hi I did the same thing when I started my journey. I stopped eating fried foods, no soda, no sweets. I have dropped 27 pounds. I was doing the shake thing for breakfast. So now on my pre-op diet it wasn't so bad. My surgery is Monday 2/3 :-)

I was 187 ,this week. The last i weighed before my niece died a month ago was 179..so upset...ready to give up. I just didn't care over the last month. Just eating too much too often, I guess.

Don't give up because of 8 lbs, put it into perspective. You need to mourn your niece and focus on family. The weight will come back off. For now just take it one day at a time, hon. You are in my prayers. Remember you are in it for the long haul. ((((Hugs)))))

I won't give up...just need to stop snacking and eating st weird times. Back to my three meals plus two snacks.. And no peanuts. My niece was so proud of me....time to get back on track. Grief does weird things to food addiction.

Just got weighed today, another 8 lbs gone, 40 more to go.

I'm 18 weeks post, i know we shouldn't "compare" weight loss, but i was hoping to have lost more. I'm kind of feeling down atm, i've been watching what i eat very closely. My husband and i go to the gym 5 days/week. The first 50lbs came off rather quickly. Is it normal to slow down this much?

      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.
