My weight was 387 the day of my bypass, and 6 months later on February 17th I was 277, so my 6-month loss was 110 pounds. In the next six months from February 17th to August 17th, I lost 70 pounds. I would highly recommend you keep detailed records, updated with your weight and measurements every month on the same day! It's really fun and interesting to look back and see these crazy changes. Living it is a whole different story. :)

I was 235 when I started meeting the doc in april of this year....I lost 20 lbs before the surgery and I've lost 30 since the surgery...I'm anxious to see where I will be by Christmas. .

I've lost a small amount because I've not been able to exercise. Feel really bad about it.

actually, I just checked your profile for your surgery weight and date. You're doing fine!

      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.
