HEY everyone! I just wanted to do an update since the last time I posted. I’m 23 (I'll be 24 in May). I had my Super Sleeve done in July and it is now Jan. I have gone from a size 16 (highest size being 20) and now I am a size 4/6. I didn't even think it was possible for me to get this small. The smallest I ever was in high school was a size 8 and that was short lived since I only lost the weight from having my wisdom teeth taken out and then as soon as I was healed I had my tonsils taken out. You have no idea how much it means to me to have others on there to talk to that know what I am dealing with and are willing to support me even though you have never meet me!

      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.
