how much????
before surgery 340 (of course that was pregnancy) but it was the highest. Without pregnancy 327
day of surgery 311
current weight 278.5
goal 150
Food wise, nothing has bothered me on bit. I keep everything down, no problem. I get about 1/2 cup each meal. Small snacks in between. I get plenty of protein. Probably not enough fluids, but I am still trying. I FEEL GREAT, no complaints at ALL. Would do it again in a heartbeat.

I can eat 1 oz of soilids and 1/4-1/2cup of soft or liquids 5-6 x a day. I am struggling to get in all my fluids and PROTEIN.
Highest weight January 4, 2006: 380
Day of Surgery, Jan 19: 369
Today: 325
Goal: 170????? (I'm going to get a scan that's supposed to tell me what my weight should be by measuring lean muscle tissue-i'll get that next month!)
MY doctor didn't have me go on a diet before surg. I only had to drink that nasty stuff the day before surg., I had my surg. on Jan.5 and weighed 237 pounds. I went for my 8 week check up and had lost 34 1/2 pounds today. I have gone down 3 pant sizes and that made me really, really happy. I had to do a little shopping---.
8 weeks loss: 34 1/2
