I'm at 8 weeks and down to 212.6 as of this morning putting me at 40 lbs lost since surgery

OMG really??! We I'm about 250 now... Hoping to get down to 245 before my surgery in October!

Good Luck to you! Most people lose weight during the pre op diet. And correction I am now 9 weeks. In the last 2 weeks I kicked up my workout to 4 days a week but I've been doing more like 5-6. That has certainly accelerated my loss.

I did not really start working out until 6 weeks post op due to the fatigue.

Everyone loses differently so try not to get caught up in the numbers. I did not really lose weight pre op so My highest weight is pretty close to my surgery weight. I wish I'd lost more pre op. I but I'm pleased with my progress so far and I feel my weight loss has been pretty steady.

Best wishes to you!

I was sleeved on Jan 26, 2016 and also had my gallbladder removed and hernia repaired. In 8 weeks I had lost 28 pounds. I am now 7 month post op and I have lost 77 pounds. Since my highest weight I have lost 259 pounds. It is hard to believe I have lost that much weight, over 182 on my own before the surgery.

My weight loss has slowed down and I still have to still lose 58 to 83 pounds. My surgeon thinks at 180 pounds the remaining 25 pounds would be excess skin that would be removed bringing me to 155. I am working hard to get to the 180 mark but have had at least 4 stalls in these 7 months and fear I am in another one. Haven't lost any weight in over 2 weeks. However I will pull through this one too and continue on.

Hearing the weight loss from everyone makes me feel better. I thought I was loosing to slowly. I'm 5 weeks out from surgery and 16 pounds down. 26 if I count the 1 week pre-op diet. I just started to work out so hopefully more weight will start to come off. I lost 3 lbs last week and nothing this week. Does everyone agree working out makes weight drop faster? Should I wait to do weights until I loose more?

      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.
