I'm in although I haven't had surgery yet. I'm trying to lose for me now so that hopefully after surgery it's not so hard. I have been doing a Protein Shake for Breakfast for the past month & a half. I'm officially down 10.5 lbs since march 5. This week I lost 3.5 lbs, I'm at 286

Hi I did the same thing when I started my journey. I stopped eating fried foods, no soda, no sweets. I have dropped 27 pounds. I was doing the shake thing for breakfast. So now on my pre-op diet it wasn't so bad. My surgery is Monday 2/3 :-)

I was 187 ,this week. The last i weighed before my niece died a month ago was 179..so upset...ready to give up. I just didn't care over the last month. Just eating too much too often, I guess.

Don't give up because of 8 lbs, put it into perspective. You need to mourn your niece and focus on family. The weight will come back off. For now just take it one day at a time, hon. You are in my prayers. Remember you are in it for the long haul. ((((Hugs)))))

I won't give up...just need to stop snacking and eating st weird times. Back to my three meals plus two snacks.. And no peanuts. My niece was so proud of me....time to get back on track. Grief does weird things to food addiction.

Just got weighed today, another 8 lbs gone, 40 more to go.

I'm 18 weeks post, i know we shouldn't "compare" weight loss, but i was hoping to have lost more. I'm kind of feeling down atm, i've been watching what i eat very closely. My husband and i go to the gym 5 days/week. The first 50lbs came off rather quickly. Is it normal to slow down this much?

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
