I have been wondering the same thing, I am 3 weeks today and have lost 24 pounds (surgery 6/12). The last few days I have stayed the same weight however, I have been very constipated! <_< Maybe after I go, I might lose some weight.

i havent felt hungry since surgery so i dont really mind not eatting anything. still scared to over drink Water or shakes so not to vomit. omg chewable Vitamins are horrible cant wait to be able to swallow a pill

I haven't been hungry either but doc tells me to eat 3 meals and 3 Snacks everyday for your metabolism to stay high. Well I haven't been very good about it cuz I'm so full, even with just eating vitamins!!!

      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.
