Please share your 1-3 month losses



Recommended Posts

I'm 25.6 pounds down since surgery day, and am two days shy of 1 month.

I love the 'tickers' that can be made. It really helps me to see progress and I can't wait to be in the middle of that 'YOU CAN DO IT' arrow!! Hahaha!!!

HW 240

SW 236

Today: 180

Total Loss: 56 pounds - I am almost 4 months out.

Goal: 140

I am a VERY slow loser. I have had many stalls along the way and the scale only creeps down a little at a time. It drove me nuts comparing myself to others and wondering what I was doing wrong. I stopped doing that and I stopped weighing myself every day. I only weigh myself one day a week (sometimes every other week) and I just go by how I feel.

You all have been so great to share your numbers!! We all should never compare ourselves to others...but it is still so great to see the possibility that is there!

Still waiting on insurance approval for my 12/28 surgery!!

How on earth can you say you are a slow loser? You've lost 74% of your excess weight in just 4 months. That's the equivalent of someone your same height starting at 300 pounds and losing 103 pounds in the same time period. With a starting BMI of only 37 I think yours is the fastest weight loss I've ever heard of!

I'm sure I'm a little on the extreme side (at least the first few weeks):

Surgery day: 305

3 week post op: 274

Total lost: 31 pounds

I will add I had a lot of trouble with anything dairy for the first 2 weeks, so some of the loss was from an unsustainable diet of Water and chicken broth while choking down watery Protein.

Coming up on 19 weeks post op, and down just over 73 pounds (I'm 5'3").

Here is my progress by week. The highest number (starting from bottom to top) is the day I started my pre-op diet.

      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.
