Lost 40 pounds in two weeks



Recommended Posts



Spanx and girdles are God sent lol yes lose skin comes with it.. But do I care? Hell no I'm smaller.. I'd rather be smaller with lose skin then as fat and unhappy as I was.. Don't let skin stop you or worry you .. That can be removed if you choose to..

Hi Chynadoll! Thanks so much, my recovery has been slow motion only because my threshold for pain is a 0 lol therefore I knew i wouldn't be bouncing back quickly like some others can. I am still really sore on my left side an have been experiencing awful nausea almost daily but it's nothing I had not prepared for already. I am 20 days post op and finally on full liquids stage but not many of the creme Soups, thinned oatmeal or grits agrees with my stomach so I have been sticking with chicken noodle broth or watered down tomatoes Soup and it is such a struggle to get the required 32oz milk an 64 oz liquid. I am doing good to get a 2 cups down but I am trying to force as much as I can down to avoid dehydration. As it stands today my stats are: HW 257, 9/27 SW 241, CW 224. I have gotten alot of tips from the forums so this site has been really helpful. Thanks so much for checking on me on my road to recovery..I am a work in progress with absolutely no regrets despite the pain I still feel an see the progress to come so I am excited if whats to come. Keep up the fantastic work and i look forward to reading everyone's updates an journeys. That keeps me motivated on my journey!

      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.
