191.6 lbs - weight went up 3 lbs from last week, but going down in inches and my body fat percentage dropped - so I'm good!

188.2

Curious when everyone introduced carbs. I'm one month post-op. Just as I'm able to tolerate textures just slightly more than baby food, I develop a very heavy metallic taste in my mouth. It's awful, everything I eat and drink tastes awful, even Water. Having a hard time eating and drinking. Doc gave me a new prescription to control acid, which he said is causing the metallic taste. But for now, everything makes me nauseaus. Starting to get weak from not eating and drinking. I so badly just want to eat a piece of dry toast with some jelly, which always used to soothe my stomach. No idea what it would do now, but I'm death staring the toaster every time I walk by it. I think my diet list has no complex carbs for like 6 mons or something ridiculous.

10/5 - 196.2 just couldn't hit 195!!

I'm 4 wks post op tomorrow, and just hit my stall 4 days ago. Down 27 lbs in total. I'm actually a little relieved, can give up my scale for the week and just relax. There's no way I'm not going to lose additional weight with my new eating and exercise habits. Body is also retaining Water right now. So, will try hopping back on once my ankles look a little less swollen. In the meantime, going to enjoy the compliments from people who are finally noticing I'm losing weight at almost 30 lbs! Be easy on yourselves.

That's 5 lbs in 5 days, that's more than great. Especially considering you may still be swollen from fluids given in the hospital.

9/28 - 198.4

Haaaaa, I just hit 199.8 two days ago and was over the moon. Ok to brag, my hubby and I high fived

Monday weigh in 202.0

Thanks and u don't mind at all my bmi was 39 and the pic with the black pants was during pre op I couldn't find one before that until today. 10 lb loss was the preop liquid diet. So "only" 12 lbs since surgery. All my pics were in bathing suits, watching too many You Tube videos lol. Have to dig up some before pics, but for the past year I've been making everyone who took a pic of me delete them. Sad, but true.

Yowzer! Only 5 weeks out? 'm shaped very similarly to you. Only 2 weeks out today. Waiting for that one month mark to compare before/after. Right now I'm down 22 lbs and still look the same. You're my inspiration lol

do you mind sharing a blank spreadsheet? I'm a numbers person too and your spreadsheet sounds amazing

Walk walk! I'm 11 Days post op. Woke up feeling so great this morning that I hopped on my bike. Couldn't help myself, she was just standing there staring at me in the garage. Felt great. But by afternoon my stomach was sore and I slept for 3 hours

I agree with Chele. Schedule your surgery if it's what you want to do. They don't understand the health implications of remaining overweight. I didn't tell my parents till two days prior. Didn't want them spending weeks complaining about something I was going to do.
