I have lost 36 lbs so far since Nov. I have another weigh in & fill tomorrow.

Although I am happy with the 36 lbs, I really thought it would be more by now. I am doing Zumba 3 times a week. My Dr says they expect 4-8 lbs a month... so I guess I am on track.

Yes, Adam Smith was my surgeon. I chose him because he had the proceedure also done on himself.

Sorry - I didn't make myself clear. I haven't had mine yet - scheduled for 4/18 w/Dr. Smith.

And as sorry as I am to not be able to answer your questions, I'm equally excited to ask you the same questions. So instead of the pupil, you're the teacher! LOL

How are you doing? Where was yours done? What kind of incisions? Terrible pain, or just uncomfortable?

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
