Weight loss breakdown



Recommended Posts

I was sleeved April 4. Prior to surgery on pre op I lost 15. I am 5'3.5. As you can see it fluxes each month and the process does slow down. I went from a size 24/ 3x to a Large 12/14. My goal from my doctor is 130 but I am going for 150. August was tough as the scale didn't move. I had to look at measurements to see the progression. My doctor is sort of rude and has been on me about my progress. I am doing all the right things.

Sw: 230

Pre op: 215

April : 204 down 11

May: 191 down 13

June: 186 down 5

July: 182 down 4

August: 179.6 down 2.4

Sept: current weight 177.6

Total Loss: 52.4

You're doing great. There are going to be ups and downs. Some months will be better than others. You are 5 months out and made amazing progress. Be proud of what you have achieved!

At 5 months out you have lost an average of about 10 lbs a month. I think that is great progress. This is not a sprint but a marathon. As long as you are making permanent long term changes to the way you eat, it doesn't matter if it takes you 1 year or 2 years to reach your goal. Keep up the great work!!

      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.
