I'm one month out tomorrow and the weight is not flying off. We all lose differently. Don't worry, it will come.

I lost 15 pounds my 1st 2 weeks after surgery, and will learn more Wednesday when I weigh in at the NUT's office. If watching your weight is driving you crazy, maybe you should take a break from the scale for a while. A lot of people take measurements because if you don't see the weight coming off, you may see the inches coming off. I am going on how my clothes fit. (A lot better right now!) Not having a scale in my house is helping save my sanity.

I was down about 22lbs in my first month post-op, but if it takes me a year to get rid of the other 80, I'm happy with that :)

Lost 18 pounds the first month. I was in a stall for over two weeks.. My scale finally moved 2 more pounds.. Hurray. Ps increased my food intake and it worked. That is 30 pounds pre and post op.

I lost 18lbs on pre-op diet, then lost 30lbs my first month, but it has definitely slowed down. I did get a personal trainer and I do hit the gym 4x a week. I've also been able to get in between 90 and 100 grams of Protein daily, as well as 96 oz of Water. I stalled for about 6 days (2x) but it broke with each time with a significant loss.

Keep at it people when was the last time, we loss weight without being hungry or killing ourselves in the process. I feel great even though I'm eating much less..who knew..I was always hungry, cranky or grumpy when I tried to lose weight before.

I lost 15# in the two weeks after my surgery. Then I stalled. Well now I have lost another 30# in the last month. Everyone is different. Follow the program and it will eventually fall off.

Update on me: I lost a total of 18 pounds my first month. My NUT said they want everyone to lose 10-15% of their weight in the first month. I lost 14.6%. Very happy with that! :)

      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.
