If pain is keeping you from eating you should check with your surgeon to make sure there isn't any problems.

Ladies I'm getting so frustrated. I had my surgery on 2/19 and lose 9lbs when I went in surgery n weighed 271 now today 8/2 I'm still 212 and stuck! I have upped my protein' date=' Water and exercise. This is the first time I have felt so down after this surgery. I really just need some encourage because now I'm feeling like a failure. How is everyone else losing weight. What are y'all eating. Give me some ideas I need help. I can't see my doc because I no longer have insurance[/quote']

We all stall at different levels of weightloss. Try staying away from the scale for awhile. Some stalls last week's. .. look at me I'm into month 6 the month most surgeons say you should be at 75% of loss, I'm not! At the same time my md is pleased the 47 lbs that have come off. .... hang in there the scale will change numbers in a downward fashion, stressing doesn't help weight loss. ...

I feel you pain... I didn't loose anything for a month and a half and just started loosing again. I stopped exercising for 2 weeks and started back up this week and started loosing... I think sometimes you totally need to change things. It's all trial and error. All different body types and age as well. Don't get discouraged. Look how far you've come. Your doing a great job and be proud of yourself! Have you measured yourself? The month and 1/2 I didn't loose weight I still lost inches... Give it a try!

202.4, officially half way there! July was not a good weight loss month, however, prior to RNY I would have gained at least 5 pounds with all the stress and crap. Instead I lost 3. That still qualifies as success in my book!

      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.
