Miss Dixie, Im starting out at about the same weight too. It's interesting to hear how some people loose fast and some slower. I think that it has to do with mostly with starting weight, and age from what I have seen for the most part. When are you able to be medically cleared for exercise? about a month in right? I really want to be able to work out with the weight. So that nothing sags afterwards.... that would be terrible....

I was sleeved on Feb 3rd and have lost about 18lbs in the 4 1/2 weeks. I did have a 10 day stall at week 3 where I lost nothing.

Slocin, you are doing just fine. Don't compare yourself to others, everyone is so different and it can just frustrate you. Keep to your plan and you will be great:)

Hi ! I'm 2 weeks out today as well and am on the slowww train! Weight before preop diet 223, surgery weight 210, current 204.. I did get my period today so I'm hoping that is slowing this down... I'm worried that something is wrong but I'm just sticking to my plan and hope to add exercise next week! ????

Meesh222 , I think it is 4 weeks but it's kind of up to what your surgeon allows . My surgeon said it was ok for me to walk an bike ride . But like the previous post everybody is different.

I had my sleeve on 2/24. I'm 22, I lost 10lbs on the pre-op diet and 12lbs my first week after the surgery. I decided to wait till Saturday this week before I weigh again. I think everyone is different.

      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.
