I'm having one of those weeks! I go to see my dr for 3 month next week and really wanted to be down 60#--I've come to the realization it's not going to happen. I've lost 50# since surgery but still feel behind <img src='http://www.bariatricpal.com/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sad.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':(' /> RNY 10/23/12

50 is great! At my 3 month, my Dr. said that 50 pounds at 3 months is what he expects so you sound like your doing great! Remember your building muscle too! :) Good luck!

I am down 40. I am discouraged, however I started a new job last month and I swear I'm taking up residency there. I decided the other day to leave Golds gym and join planet fitness since they are 24 hours. Then I have access. I am just happy to be able to eat salad again. When I had my Lapband, I could barely pass salad. Now I have it. Everyday..... You ladies are looking fab! Keep it up!

Hey everyone, how we all doing? Has anyone had any dumping yet?

There's a multitude of things I can't seem to keep down: Shrimp, chicken breast or other dry meats, rice, bread, fried foods, and high amounts of sugar. But I'm not too worried about it. Just trying to make ol' "pouchy" over here happy. Ha ha! :)

I have to say I am doinv great! DOS 10/3/12 220 down to 169 i can wear a size 12 sometimes 10. I feel great. I shop a lot LOL! But only low prices. I am hoping to get down to an 8. I never thought I would feel this way about myself. A guy at work says I even walk differently. My husband can't keep his hands off me. Exercise is my friend now. But best of all I can wear skinny jeans and my boots zip all the way up.

Omg your doing great!

      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.
