My stats 2 months PostOp



Recommended Posts

Hi all!

I’ve attached my stats in this message. Can someone take a look and give me some feedback? I know everyone loses at different rates, but I’m kind of freaking out that I’ll be a super slow loser and won’t end up losing that much.

I know I’m doing all the right things. I’m not sure what else to do. I’m getting about 1000 cals a day which I’m sure will only slightly climb as time goes on so then I’m sure my weight loss will continue to slow.

Any help or insight is appreciated!!

Did you ask your nutritionist how many calories to eat? I haven't had surgery yet, so I don't know. I think a lot of them go by volume, not calories (like only eating 2 oz or 1/2 cup of food, ) and I don't know how far out that lasts.

good luck! If you have any questions about your progress, I would call your nutritionist.

I’m also 2 months out and have lost 34lbs, so we’re pretty close there. As for calories, I’m still around 600 a day. I don’t know where I should be, I wasn’t given limits on calories/carbs, just told to make sure I was getting Protein (60-70g), veg (2 spoons with every meal), maybe a fruit, and Water (1.5 liters) in each day.

I'm 7 week post-op tomorrow. Down 26 pounds. Was wondering the same thing.

It would really help with context if those asking filled in their profiles...surgery type, surgery day weight, current weight.

Regardless of that, sounds like you are doing fine to me, we are all different, lose weight differently and type of surgery and post op guidelines differ too. Factor in any pre surgery weight loss, if this is high, post op weight loss in the first month or two will seem lower than others.

      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.
