I'm almost 4 weeks out (surgery 6/7) and have lost 23 pounds. Was stuck for a week with no weight loss (2 pound gain) but started moving this last week, so yay!

Iam one week out have lost 11lbs so far. surgery was 6/26/12 was wondering what I can have only been having water and shakes. I was 417 in December was down to 370 when I started the 2 week shakes.

I have been wondering the same thing, I am 3 weeks today and have lost 24 pounds (surgery 6/12). The last few days I have stayed the same weight however, I have been very constipated! <_< Maybe after I go, I might lose some weight.

I haven't been hungry either but doc tells me to eat 3 meals and 3 Snacks everyday for your metabolism to stay high. Well I haven't been very good about it cuz I'm so full, even with just eating vitamins!!!

yea i cant see eating all of that at least not now lol. honestly what i think has been helping me is making dinner for my family. dont know why crazy?
