My gastric bypass was done Sept5, 2013. I'm seeing what others have lost around the same time. Jan 5 will be 4 months for me. I'm down 57lbs. I'm happy for the loss I just assumed it would be more by now but maybe not. Either way I'm happy for my decision. How's everyone else doing?!

I wish everyone a fantastic new year with amazing results!! ????????

9-26 was mine! down abouy50-52 but I cheated a bit over the holidays... back on track now! it really has more to do w how much you have to loose (100-110 for me)... the more you need to loose the faster is goes at 1st!

good luck and don't get discouraged!

Surgery was 9/12 almost 4 months out

So far I've lost 68 pounds!

HW 280

SW 268

CW 212

5'9"

Surgeons goal 205

My goal 170-175

I think we all hope for more, but our bodies are adjusting now. We can do this, just focus and follow your surgeons plan for you !

My surgery was 9-23-13, I've lost approximately 50lbs now, just a little over 50% of what I need to lose. My Dr. said I'm ahead of my expected weight loss, so I'm gonna keep doing what I've been doing.

      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.
