My surgery weight was 216 too !!! I am 163 right now, April 9 is my 1 year anniversary. I would like to get down to 150 where I am comfortable at which is a size 8-10 for me. I'm 5'4 1/2". Only 13 more lbs. to go.

We all have them... last summer I stalled in August, Sept, Oct. and started losing again in Nove. I did not gain but I just simply stalled. I did change up my exercise , I started jogging instead of walking and work out 1 hr. instead of 45 minutes. That got me out of my stall.

It cold just be Water retention, if you are doing exactly what your suregon instructed you to do then you will lose. I have seen sooooo many people say they have stalled then after a week will drop 8-9-10 lbs. You will be fine ... and begin to lose again.. we all do - I promise :)

What happens if you keep losig weight beyond your goal. Does the Dr have you do something to slow the weight loss down?

You slowly increase your caloric intake until you find the right balance and stop losing.

Also I was informed your body will stop on its own as well.....

      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.
