They asked you to lose eight pounds in one week? Not sure if I'm going to be much help but I will try. Have you been on a six month weight loss requires? How much are you down?

I'm three years out from surgery. I can't lose eight pounds in a week. It's more like one to two pounds, I also exercise two hours a day five days a week. one hour cardio one hour lifting.

My calorie intake is 1200. My Protein goal is 70-130. Low carb lots of Water.

The only way I know my calories and macronutrients is logging my food in my fitness pal.

I have done everything but i have to lose 8 pound to get approved for the surgery and i have my appointment next week with the nut

Pity you didn't plan to do it in 12-25 days. Seven days or fewer is a tall order.

1. Have four half-strength low-carb Protein Shakes made on Water over the course of a day. (about 4.5-5.5 hours apart).

2. Drink 1.2-2.1 litres of water during the whole 24 hour day.

3. snack on cucumbers, tomatoes, baby spinach and celery if you have to chew!

4. Exercise: (a) swim 3000m and/or (b) wade chest deep in water as fast as you can for 2-3 hours and/or (c) use a treadmill on 4mph or higher for two hours or more AND (d) do 15 minutes every hour you're awake of resistance or resistance-band exercises or dumbbells/barbells to 10kg (22 pounds).

- - -

I swim 3000m (2 miles) every day and deep-wade a further 2000m (1.25 miles). Every second day, I do 35-40 minutes of pool resistance exercises. On the alternate days, I do 25-30 minutes with resistance bands and ankle weights.

I weigh myself before I leave home and when I come back. The difference (before any eating or drinking) is 700 grams to 1.7 kg (1700 grams) lost via exercise ... depends on heat, humidity, intensity, hydration ...

So, before I eat my 950-1450 calories per day, I am already down 700-1700 grams. (That's 25 ounces to 60 ounces melted daily ... or 1.5 to 2.5 pounds per day).

On my post op and eating much more than you will, I have a nett loss of 1.2kg to 1.7kg per week (3 to 3.75 pounds).

Do NOT follow this advice if you are self-aware enough to know that it would be dangerous for you. I am NOT a medical professional or exercise consultant. I am just telling you what I have learnt about my own rate of weight loss in the last 6-8 months.

n.b. TWO DAYS PER WEEK, I swim/wade with my family doctor.

Scratch the advice above - what was I thinking...Do the best you can to lose the weight. Don't beat yourself up if it doesn't happen in 8 days. It's the fact you are loosing not how fast.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

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

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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
