Hi friends

Where are you in your weightloss? Ive lost 80 pounds. Man it is going so slow now ????

I can eat much more (still little though, not like before the op) and i am so scared i "broke" my pouch and i am not really going to lose much more. Why is it so slow? I am lucky if it is 2 pounds loss a week, perhaps not even!

hair still falling out as well. Feeling a bit discouraged.

Hi friends

Quick question, according to your doc, how much Protein should you get in about now daily?

And then, how much do you actually manage?

I think mine is too little perhaps. My weightloss is very slow now. Lucky if it's a pound a week. How are you doing? I need to know I am going crazy!

My dr says 2-3lbs a week but stalls are expected. .I beat myself up about it too so idk. I thought the last month was AWFUL but at 4 months august 16th I was down 70lbs and now I'm down 80lbs so it wasn't terrible I guess at least its going down right lol

My hair is also falling out like crazy! I'm hoping it will slow down soon

Mine says 60-80 and tbh I don't track it ..I know I always have a shake for Breakfast which is 27g Protein and then between lunch and dinner I get the rest

      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.
