I lost 15 lbs on a 2 week pre-op. It's been 5 weeks today since surgery and I have lost another 18 lbs. It's not dropping like I thought it would. But they say it will. Your body just has to get adjusted to what's happening to it

I lost 15 lbs. my first week after surgery. Then maybe 2 lbs. since the post-op weigh-in. I'm currently 5 weeks out and feeling very frustrated that I haven't lost more.

I had my sleeve surgery 2/20/17 spent one day in hospital. Home now the first thing I did was weigh myself. I was heavier this morning post surgery. Maybe it because of all the IV fluids and gas pumped in my abdomen? I have cramps how long will this feelings of bloating last?
I lost 16 pounds pre-opt came home weighed 10 pounds heavier. Is this normal?

I lost 13 pounds during the pre-op diet. I heard / read about people losing 20-30 pounds and was very discouraged, anxious and nervous that it may cause problems during and after the surgery. All my doctor told me during the date of the surgery was 'not to stress on it' and that each person's body weight loss takes its own course and not to keep comparing with others weight loss scores.

I keep seeing people post about pre-op diets that they had to be on for weeks. I'm a little confused because my Dr only requires 3 day liver shrinking diet before surgery.

      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.
