I know they say it slows down, I read it's usually the 3 week mark.

I see the Dr. On Monday I'm not sure what the rate of weight loss is that they expect, and ideas what's the norm?

Well I had RNY so mine is going to be different than yours. And age sex lifestyle diet stress all that good stuff and more can affect it. What your number sound pretty good. That's a lot of weight in a short amount of time. I know you're a woman but I don't really know the rest of the information. I can't imagine that you want to lose any faster than what you already are has that might be dangerous too.

Was your surgery recent?? If I can lose 10 a month I think that is average.

People lose like 50 the first 3 months it's crazy the stories I read on here

Starting weight: 291 lbs (June 2016)

Today: 234 lbs

My surgery is next Friday. Lost over 55 lbs without surgery, I sure hope the surgery can do better than that :)

I don't know what you're talking about but that's pretty awesome without surgery. You're going to do really good. Usually a good sign when your losing decent weight before surgery. Congratulations and good luck

Yeah it took me 5 months to lose 50 pounds. Then I really slowed down.

Especially when we are talking relative "lightweights" like the OP is (and I was), the weight loss isn't as dramatic as some that start out heavier.

      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.
