I’ve been told so many times by my entire surgical group that thinking your stalled before 3 to 4 months out is ridiculous. That said I have been 275 for a couple of weeks now but last Friday at my 3 month follow up I was told I had lost 5 pounds more than the average person looses at this point. Just waiting for another 10 pound drop in one week now!

Go hawks!!!! (I'm originally from Washington State ;))

Congrats on 80 pounds down! I don't agree that it's ridiculous to stall before the 3 or four months out. The third week stall is so normal.

Doing amazing work! keep going.

Thanks so much! I just happen to agree with my team who also told me to stay off the scale as well. I only weigh myself at doctor appointments. It works for me. Oh & yes absolutely GO HAWKS!

Go! Go! Godzirra!

You got this! (Oh and a friend of a friends, aunt's sister-in-law, whose mom's grandmother had RNY surgery last year said that there are 3-week, 3 month, 6month, and 9 month stalls that are pretty well-documented in the WLS communities. ;) hehe...

Ferris was fine. Cameron was the one that needed saving! I never did get the whole save Ferris thing.

LOL, he was that one magical charismatic kid who somehow knew all the angles and how to win friends and influence people. LOL. I was never that kid. And yes, poor Cameron. (love that actor though). And poor sister too!

Keep up the good work. The scale is just an indicator, as long as you keep up the routine you don’t even really need to weigh yourself.

My thought for Friday: I am a good person, I am a strong person, daily I will acheive a loss, why should I climb on the scale today and shatter all my hopes?

      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.
