[DeniseSchipper 2]

I have already lost 60 pounds before the weight-loss surgery, got stuck, and need to learn lose another 80 I guess. I am so ready for the challenge. I am having a hard time Feeling satisfied with my 500 cal. So I’m spreading the Snacks out so that I have three meals and three snacks and I don’t have a lot of hunger I hope. Today is day one. Good luck everyone!

I had my post-op appointment today and I am down 11lbs from surgery date of 4/29. According to my Surgeon and my dietitian I am ahead of schedule for the weight I've lost far. I was advanced to soft cooked eggs soft vegetables (fish which I don't eat) and some fruits. I am doing well with my Water, but need to increase Protein to 64 oz. I found that I don't like anything that is sweet and I don't have an appetite. My incisions are healed and pain near the largest incision is pretty much gone.

Starting weight-260 lbs

Surgery Weight-244 lbs

Current weight-233 lbs

We are surgery twins and I am stalled too. Very frustrating. I am on 800 calories and doing everything right too. I’m just trying to focus on the long-term because I know my tool will work in the long run. Hang in there and PM me anytime.

Thanks my surgery twin! Hanging in there, no other choice right? And for sure it will work 🤗

No. I lost about 18 lbs in approximately 2 weeks. I’ve lost about 20 or so lbs in the first month as my weight loss slowed because I had lost that weight so quickly.

Gotcha.

Nice! Did you hit a stall like I did? Because I had lost the first 18 lbs so quickly I hit a stall at week 3. My nutritionist said it’s my body going into self preservation mode. I stopped weighing myself daily and weigh in weekly. The scale finally moved (weighed last Sunday) and as of that day, I’m down 20 lbs all together.
