have to lose 50 lbs in 2lbs in 2 mnths or no surgery any advice



Recommended Posts

wow that seems a little unrealistic to have to lose 50 lbs in 2 months. I would go on some sort of 2 meals of Protein Shakes and then one healthy meal. But seriously that seems crazy.

Well it was my fault I had 6 months but it didn't hit me that the countdown was so close n if I don't I don't get my surgery date n I have been so distracted with my sons apps I forgot about mine he has CP but I know its possible just a lot of hard work I am just trying to get as many tips n advice as possible cause this pretty much is a life or death thing for me

Be careful... 50 pounds in 2 months is hard to do after surgery, let alone before. If you don't get enough calories your body will go into starvation mode and you won't lose anything. Look into seesaw dieting or shredder program. It's about eating more calories one day and then a lot fewer the next so you won't hit starvation mode. Good luck!! Sure they'll let you go forward if you get close :)

They told me with how much I weigh now 50 is the amount I have to lose on order to be approved for the surgery so no I don't hit 50 I well have to wait even longer for surgery

Once I lost from 242 to 192 in just under 2 months. Another time I lost 38 lbs in 6 weeks doing HCG. Of course I've gained it all back but it is possible. Don't stress about it. Stress will certainly stall weight loss. Try losing as much as you can and try to relax.

You should find a new doctor that doesnt have such a strict requirement, i didnt have to lose any weight to have the surgery.....if we could lose it so easily we wouldnt need the surgery.....

I thought maybe it was an insurance requirement. Yeah if it's just that doctor search around. I went to a couple before I found the doctor I felt comfortable with.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
