your weight loss seems to be well above average - it's normal for it to slow down. just keep following the plan.

That is far from disappointing. Typical weight loss is 2lb a week.

If you are going to weigh yourself every day and fret over it, you are in for a very long very miserable journey.

I weigh myself every day but only Mondays count. Your weight can fluctuate daily and even hourly based on the content of your body.

I am going to try and not weigh myself everyday. It is a habit.

I weighed myself early on and it drove me nuts. I stopped and went to once a week, until I got less attached to the scale, and had lost more weight.

Once I was under 300 pounds, something I had never been able to do on my own. I felt like surgery was really worth it and I was less attached to the what the scale said. Once you get less detached, it is good to weight yourself so you can learn it just naturally fluctuates and its not as big of a deal.

      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.
