Hi I am 3 months out and like you I can only eat about 3 bites! I am rarely hungry, I have craving and I am not afraid to satisfy them! I eat so little of anything anyway! I am now starting to experience some Hair loss which is a bummer since I have thin hair anyway!!!

The reason I ask is because I I'm 5'2 and my starting weight was almost the same as you. 225 and I wish to have the same results as u but I'm two months out and I'm at 185 so far ( I'm not complaining, I love my results so far).. Just curious what do you eat on a daily basis?

2.5 months out and I eat a lot. Around 1000-1200 calories which scares me because the norm is supposed to be 600-800 cals. I went from 244 to 201 in about 10 weeks though.

It's hard to not compare ourselves to others. As others have said everyone loses weight differently. Don't be to hard on yourself when you see others drop faster.

I eat between 659-900 calories a day. No bread no Pasta and I only drink Water and sometimes the low cal Gatorade. Lots of fruits and veggies and lots of fish, chicken and lots of eggs, mainly egg whites. I weigh all my food and I log all my food on myfitnesspal. If you have a myfitnesspal feel free to friend me :) myfitnesspal name is ruthiecoyne

My food diary is public. Feel free to message me anytime too on myfitnesspal

I allow myself to eat on occasion a special treat if I'm craving something last night I had a small slice of pizza. I try walking for exercise but exercise is what I struggle with.

      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.
