Hello my name is yannira and I will be 3 months post op at the end of July my beginning weight was 245 and I am currently standing at 197.... At first I was very skeptical on the hole weight loss is was aggravated because I thought I would lose more weight but then I realized that I didn't gain the weight over night and I wouldn't lose it overnight as well... After reading everyone's posts on bariatricpal it encouraged me to keep my head up and keep pushing forward.... I'm so proud of all us we ROCK????

We are on about the same timeline. My surgery date was 4/27/15. I am a slow lose but still feeling happy about it so far. I am down 28lbs but had this long stall where I was actually going up and down 2-3lbs. Finally going down again. I do monthly before and afters and the pictures tell me what the scale doesn't! Keep on keeping on!!

I have a question.... The doctor told me I wouldn't be feeling hungry but the truth is I'm constantly snacking like every 2 hours or so.... I don't know if I'm actually really hungry or its just my mind.... Is that normal

I am about 10 weeks....not really hungry. I know acid reflux can mimic hunger so make sure u are taking the Opremozol or whatever your Dr precribed? And our heads are often worst enemy. Just make sure it's Protein and Water :)

Been stalling for about 3 weeks now and I haven't lost a pound should I be concerned? I'm a little worried about the situation

      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.
