I'm in the same boat as you, had my surgery on July 10 and I only lost 9 pounds, just try to get the 70 grams of Protein in a day, and the 64 oz of Water, my doctor said its normal that everyone is different.

Have you weighed your self? Did you do any kind of pre-op diet? I started this journey at 333, then my doc put me on a pre-op all liquid diet for a week and went down to 318 on the day of my surgery which was yesterday. With nothing but I'VE yesterday and ice chips I know I weigh less. I don't feel like I have been losing weight until i step on the scale.< /p>

it's not an overnight process. you have already lost 15 pounds in 2 1/2 weeks. that's impressive! i had my surgery on 7/10 and have lost 15 pounds as well. i've never lost weight that quickly doing Atkins, medifast, or any other diet so i'm happy. just keep following your directions and it will come off!!!

hang in there!

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
