Was anyone around 5'4 240lbs? How much weight did you lose and how long has it been since your surgery? What surgery did you have done? Just curious!

I’m 5”2 and started at 227 lbs lost 11 lbs on the pre op 2 week diet. I’m 73 days post op and have lose 32 lbs for a total of 43 lbs in a total of 84 days. I had the gastric sleeve done. I’m not walking much due to back & knee surgery last year.

while I’m happy with the weight loss I am only 2 sizes down in pants. I messed up and did not measure myself in inches. But have went from a 44 BMI to a 34.

Not losing as quickly as I like but I am unable to go back to the gym until the end of June due to hiatal hernia repair. Also I turn 70 next month lol which might be part of it! But I am very happy as I feel so much better and have dropped 2 sizes!

      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.
