Tiffy, congrats! You certainly are a success and I know that you inspire a lot of people around here.

I read a post of yours a few months after you did your revision from band to sleeve and it was your band complications that led me to investigating the sleeve in the first place. Thank you for posting regular updates and being as helpful as possible when people have questions.

I'm excited to see what the next year will bring you, and hope you'll get to share baby news with us soon!

Thank you so much for sticking around here and being supportive to all who have come after you in this WL journey. I think of you as a sort of missionary in the field. I wish you continued good health and a successful pregnancy Tiff. You have a beautiful heart and now a beautiful temple to support it. God bless.

:):crying::crying::001_wub:Tiffy, while reading this my eyes teared up because I could relate to the feelings you described of before your victories with the sleeve! You never know who's listening or who might hear exactly what they need to hear. You have touched my spirit over the last several months like no other human being! Thank you for your candor and pure humility throughout your journey. Not only are you an inspiration in my weight loss & living healthy journey, but also part of my "path of Happy Destiny"!

You were beautiful when you started this journey but you've become an amazing spirit along the way! I hope you continue to grow as the days pass and can't wait to hear when your next dream in life comes to fruition! (I will crochet something for the new baby)! Love you Sister, Sheryl:seeya:

Tiff, I was impressed with you even before I saw these last pictures. OMG!! You have worked you sleeve almost beyond comprehension while maintaining a sense of humor and common sense. I, for one, think your husband John is a very lucky guy.

You have been an inspiration for so many on this forum, with advice, food help, encouragement, etc. I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart, because without you, I might have made the awful band mistake. I don't want to bore you, but as a former military officer, I SALUTE YOU!

Well, Tiff, I just want to thank you so much for all of the information that you provide to everyone on this site! You are so much more than a success story, you are living proof!

I am tentatively scheduled to get my band out and sleeved on June 28th and I HOPE (know) that I will be just like you this time next year! You are such an inspiration:thumbup:!

thank you,

Patti

      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.
