At 4 months out I'm down 100 pounds as of this morning. I'm so glad I had this done as my life and health have improved so much in a short period of time.

Congratulations! Keep pushing to hit your goal, then the hard part starts, eating right for the rest of your life. Take it day by day. I was on track to hit a 100# at four months but have been in a two week stall. I can still hit the mark if my body decides it is time to burn some fat!

Congrats Andrew! May I ask if after that initial surge of weight loss did you find that you lost pretty steady every week say around 5 pounds or did your journy have weeks where you lost more than other weeks? I am only at the 3 week mark and after my first two weeks of losing 30 pounds I lost 6 pounds my 3rd week and was wondering what my weekly losses would look like. I read a lot of posts where others talk about 'stalling' which at my size and muscle mass and the little I eat seems almost impossible to me. Thanks.

Thank you and congratulations on your success!

My weight loss was pretty steady until recently. It's slowed down but I continue to lose inches. I've attributed this to my losing some muscle mass earlier and now adding muscle as I've begun some strength training.

As time passes, my memory of the complications have faded away. Now concentrating on eating right and exercising.

      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.
