Lol. Really? Wow. So tell me what your weight loss has been like. I thought I was the only one. Just sucks to starve and lose nada in 10 long long days. I'm like what???!! Very frustrating

I lost fast for the first week then there was 6 days I Loss nothing so I increased my Protein and carbs a little an it has been slow and not steady at all this week I lost 5 and the same as last week. But the body says I'm starving and is trying to hold on to what it has I also increased my Water which is a battle . So know your not the only one. It will start again. In total I've lost 33 lbs surgery was nov 6

Spiking is an old diet trick. You add calories one day and go lighter the next. If you eat 600 calories a day, for example, your body gets used to it. Try 700 one day and 500 the next.

Ok so I'm post op 5 days and I'm on Clear Liquids for 2 weeks.

Im focusing on my Protein Shakes since I really dont want to get weak/lose my hair etc. Im trying to get as close to the 80-100g of Protein a day but so far the most I can intake is two 8oz Protein Drinks which have 23g of protein each. Im taking nectar. I rarely drink Water by itself. I want to make a every sip count and since I can barely drink 16oz of liquids I'm not even adding broth, jellos or popsicles...

But Im afraid im gonna get dehydrated if I don't drink more... has anyone had this problem???

      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.
