Before surgery I said I wouldn't complain about the amount of weight I loose, but now I find it hard to do. I had the gastric bypass on 4/7/15 and I've lose 18 pounds the first 2 weeks. The past 2 weeks I've lose 0 pounds, and I'm wondering if I'm doing something wrong. I thought based on my SW (360) alone that the pounds would be falling off a little faster.

Your at the famous stall. Happens to everybody. Around 3 weeks out i started to not lose anything and then before i knew it, the weight started coming off again. Its totally normal! Theirs a thread on here about the stall. Gotta search for it. Explains everything.

The very same thing happened to me. My first month out I was devastated as I lost nothing for 2 weeks (weeks 3-5) after losing 20 lbs. the first two weeks. However, the pounds started coming off again, slowly at first and then right back on track. I am now just past my 2 month mark (week 9) and am very happy with my weight loss per week. Take a deep breath and know that we have all been there. :)

      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.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
