How Much Weight Did You Lose Before Surgery?



Recommended Posts

From my first appointment at the weight management department, until my last weigh in at the hospital just before surgery, I lost 43 pounds. How about you?

15 so far. I have about 2 1/2 months to go before surgery. Hope to lose 25+ by surgery date.

I started the process at 39.9 BMI so I had to maintain it, which sounds ridiculous and honestly not much work. That said, between the time that they submitted paperwork and the surgery (2-3 weeks; it was a quick turnaround) I lost at least 4 pounds, and maybe more like 10. I don't know because they didn't weigh me the morning of. At the last appointment a few days before I'd lost 4 pounds, but I was on a liquid diet the last 5 days so it was probably more than that.

      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! 😞
