I’m 6 weeks post op today. I’ve lost weight but feel like I should’ve lost more considering I eat so little. I was wondering how much others have lost up to this point and even 3...6...9...12 months etc. I KNOW it’s not the same for everyone AND they people who are bigger/smaller lose weight at different paces. I’m just looking for motivation to look forward to eventually losing more. Thanks in advance!

You are right, everyone loses at different rates. I've lost 51 pounds, but I try not to worry about the scale. I Celebrate non scale victories like how small I am and how lose my clothes for.

Going on 8 weeks out this coming Wednesday. Still stuck at 19 pounds lost since surgery. I say stuck because I hit 19 pounds lost 2 weeks ago. I’ve been stalled since then. *shrug*

Thursday will be 4 weeks out but the 12th is a month, if that makes sense. I was 342lbs on day of surgery and am now 314lbs. Seem to be on a bit of a stall on this 3rd week but hoping it will pass soon.

      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.
