Hey, I just thought I'd give you guys an update!

Today I am 16 days out and I lost 10 Kilo's! (thats 22 lbs according to the conversion site)

I can already feel it in everything!

I'm not having any problems with "eating" (just cant seem to really call what I'm doing eating... :crying:) except that milk products still dont go down well. Some days better than others.

I'm walking every morning for 45 minutes (I always did, have dogs ;) ) and in the evening I go for another 20 minutes with one of the horses. Some days I feel good enough to do lots, other days I have less energy.

All in all so far so good!:lol0:

Hi Haley! Good for you! 22 lbs in 16 days is an excellant job! That is about 1.37 lbs a day, more than what a package of butter weighs! Wow your doing really well! See you didn't have anything to worry about. . when are you going to finally get up onto that horse instead of walking it around?;)

      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.
