I had Gastric Loop Bypass 14th September 2016.

Highest weight: 315lbs

Pre op diet weight (2 week shake diet): 291lbs

Surgery weight: 276lbs

Current weight: 246lbs

I am so so pleased with myself I may not be losing weight quickly or slowly like others but as long as I stick to my dietary requirements I should be fine I'm going at my own pace.

While I am so happy for everyone, this is totally depressing for me. I had surgery on 8/23 at 311, almost 8 weeks out and am at 280 now, that's a total weight loss of only 31 pounds. What am I doing wrong!!!! Any advice?

You sound like me!! 5 months after surgery I was only down about 25 pounds but then it kind of just fell off of me. I am 2 and a half years out and have lost 120 pounds! Don't worry, it will come off unless your are sucking back calories in milkshakes, ice cream etc!

Feeling and seeing yourself smaller is a BIG one!! I still see my highest weight at times. It took me forever to stop going to the Plus Sized racks. It actually took my daughter telling me over and over that I didn't need those sizes anymore. I still have what I call my "FAT DAYS"!! It is very hard for our minds to catch up with our bodies. Our minds definitely did not have the WLS!!! I'm 3 years out and I have maintained my 124# loss for 2 and 1/2 years, I still haven't caught up yet.

We are having similar results! My highest weight was 297, My RNY was 9/28/16 and I weighed 279.9, and now I am 254.2. I stall for a day or two and then lose a couple of pounds. Looking forward to continuing to drop by just sticking with the program!

      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.
