Two weeks post op weight loss for me! Great start



Recommended Posts

Hi all, so two weeks post op for me and my official weight loss is 18lbs! Went in the morning of surgery at 333lbs and am now at 315lbs.

I'm happy with my start so far and while I do realize the beginning weight loss is the most rapid, it gives me hope that I did the right thing and motivation to keep pushing through!

Total weight loss pre op & post op together is 65lbs total :)

I'd love to hear two week post op stories from others! Still in some pain/soreness from the main exit incision, but doing ok.

That is so awesome... Great job so far. I just had my 2 week post op yesterday.

371 at 2 weeks PRE-OP ... 351 Day of Surgery

332 at 2 week POST-OP

I still have minor pain at main incision too. But doc said that was normal and all looks good.

      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.
