2.5 months post op 40lbs down



Recommended Posts

Hello everyone,

I wanted to ask everyone what their experience has been with weight loss after surgery. I had a rocky start post op and was unable to get food down which landed me in the ER. The first month I lost 24lbs now im averaging about 10 lbs a month. I stall for 2-3 weeks at a time before the scale moves again. I've been reading about people's progress which makes mines not seem so great. I am watching what I eat and am active. I was 284 and now 240.

10 lbs a month is about what I lost after the initial drop the first month.

10lbs a month is how much my doctor said he expected me to lose. Everybody is different, heavier you are faster you will loose because you have more to lose, dont focus on other people lost focus on do the best you can ;)

I am about 2 and a half monts post op and am only down about 30 lbs. I also stall constantly. On surgery date I was 227 on 3/31, today am 200.4, was as low as 198.4 a few days ago, but fluctuate constantly up and down by a pound or two. The one thing I lack is Water, have never been a big water drinker and still aint. Good luck on your journey!!! :)

      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.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
