I want in too!!

My surgery day and beginning stats are in my signature, but I'll do the weekly weigh-in starting now too. Monday works for me, except I won't be here next Monday so I'll do my weigh-in on Tuesday if you don't mind?

7-20-09 239.5

We could always come back next week and edit this post and add the next week's weight under this one. Has anyone tried that yet?

Hi there -

starting weight - 270

pre-surgery- 251

current weight- 234

Lost 36 pounds altogether and 17 pounds since my surgery on July 3rd. I am eating mushy food and can see that the weight loss has really slowed but as long as I don't go up I am not going to worry about it. I know that I can't eat like I used to and that the weight will come off eventually.

Is anybody exercising? That is my next goal. It is really a challenge for me to get off my ass.

Surgery Weight--270 (07/07/09)

Today's Weight--258 (07/27/09)

Last week I was at 262, so that's 4 pounds for me this week! I couldn't be happier. I expected a smaller amount since I went from liquids to pureed foods, but I guess this is what my body needs right now. Good luck to all!

Ugh, I didnt lose anything since last Monday. But I started mushies on Thursday and weighed myself then. I had lost another pound and a half. I gained that back since starting mushies. Im exactly where I was last Monday now. Im not going to be too hard on myself though. I honestly expected it because we put our bodies into starvation mode on this liquid diet. I think my body will stop freakin in the next few weeks. This was honestly to be expected. Its really not good to go down to like a five hundred calories a day which is about what I was doing on the liquid sugar free diet I was on for two weeks. Because as soon as you start feeding yourself again, your body treats 1200 calories like its 3000 because its hanging onto every single calorie afraid that your still starving. I think once my body is back on track in the next few weeks, I will have a good weight loss again. Gonna stay positive!! :crying:

Surg Date 7/16/2009

7/20/2009 -1.5 lbs total loss 1.5 lbs

7/23/2009 -1.5 lbs total loss 3.0 lbs

7/27/2009 +1.5 lbs total loss 1.5 lbs

hi everyone

Surgery weight 226.50

Last week weight 217.00

Today's weight 215.00

That is down 2 for me. I guess that isn't too bad since I am on 'regular' food. The goal is 1-2 lbs a week. So, there you go!

      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.
