Hi- I am almost 2'months out and have lost 60 pounds. 10 pounds was on the liquid. 30 was the first 3 weeks and 20 has been the last 5 weeks. My weight loss is going by so slow... I know I have lost a lot but not sure what else to do to move the scale. I feel like I've been suck or lose .2 or 0 pounds daily.

What's everyone weight loss after the second month?

And why exercise are you doing?

Thanks

Welcome to how WLS works. You have done fantastic! Your body cannot keep up that pace every day, it is simply not good for you and it needs time to reset.

As you get closer and closer to your goal it will really slow down and you will have to be diligent about what you eat. The last 30lbs was like pure torture but I promise if you stick to the eating plan and move your body they will come off.

Fret not, you are doing fantastic! Keep up the good work!

Keep up the good work! You're doing great!

I've lost roughly 61lbs and I'm seven weeks post-op. Lost 15lbs on the liquid diet, and 46lbs post-op. The only exercise I've been getting until recently is walking, I get in at least 8km daily, and starting this week I'll be doing weights three days a week (Doctor said I should be okay for lifting now)

I will be thrilled if I have lost 60 pounds after 2 months! I'm 5 weeks out now and 29.5 pounds down. I lost 21 pounds the first 3 weeks and then just a few pounds each of the next two weeks. I'm hoping the weight loss will pick back up soon! Good luck!

      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.
