Haven't lost a lot of weight Pre-Op? Anyone else in the same boat?



Recommended Posts

How much has everyone lost in their Pre-Op visits? My doctor didn't give me a specific amount that I needed to lose for surgery to occur. Just that I needed to try and lose weight.

I'm about 5'8 and my starting weight was 330 pounds, but I lost about 15 pounds before my visits started.

My weight at my visits has been the following:

Visit 1: 314.6

Visit 2: 309.4

Visit 3: 308.4

Visit 4: 307.2

Visit 5: 301.3

Visit 6 is this week.

I'm just super paranoid that I haven't lost enough weight compared to others. I haven't gained at all - but still I'm just kinda hoping that I get approved without any issues.

As long as you're moving down or staying the same you're okay

That's the one thing that gets us...comparing ourselves to others. Remember everyone loses weight at a different pace. As stated above as long as you're losing you're good! Especially if he didn't give you a specific amount. Don't sweat it! You'll be fine! Best of luck!

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
