9 pounds in a week doesn't seem like "only" to me! Seems huge! CONGRATS!

Nine pounds is a lot of weight to lose in a week! I gained 8 pounds from the surgery and it took a couple weeks to get that off. You will be fine, keep doing what you're doing.

Wow. 9 lbs! WTG! When was the last time u lost 9 lbs in 1 week? It will lessen with time so u might want to get ur weightloss into persepctive. 9 lbs in a week is phenomenal!

Just like the contestants on The Biggest Loser - and they work out like 10 hrs a day!

You're doing great. "Only" 9 pounds - are you kidding me!?!? ;-)

Just stick with the plan your doctor and/or NUT gave you - the weight and inches will come off.

I have a love/hate relationship with my scale, so it only comes out once per week.

Best of luck to you!

It's crazy you mentioned the biggest loser. In one of our group sessions a guy was there who was actually on the biggest loser season 3. He lost 130 pounds and gained 100 back. So now he's back to do the sleeve with my surgeon.

      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?

      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.
