December 2010 Sleevers!



Recommended Posts

You're doing great! It was 6 weeks & I was eating beef & pork plus popcorn (my favorite!) as it seems to be my slider. I have "slimed" twice with chicken tho. We are supposed to wait 4 months for raw veggies, correct?

Hey, thanks for checking in!!! I am doing really well, loving my sleeve so far! I've lost 45 lbs since Dec. 14, and I feel much lighter on my feet already! I am tolerating just about everything (except I am scared to try beef or pork ), and I'm feeling good!

Hope everyone else is doing well!

I had a slow start, too, and had my surgery on 12/1/2010. Now on 3/28/11, I'm down 63 pounds. I'm happier about it now - doesn't feel like it's so slow now!

Hey Becca I would love to talk with you about your overall experience. i has my surgery completed on 12/20/2010 as well. 293 pre-op and 173 post-op. But i have had some struggles.

I just thought I would start a December 2010 page! I am having my sleeve on December 20, 2010 in Houston, TX with Dr. Nowzaradan. My surgery is a revision from lapband to the sleeve. Please share your date so we can support each other as our special day approaches. Thanks!

Hi - it's been awhile since I've been here, and it's good to see a little activity! Got my sleeve on 12/1/2010, and as of today have lost 102 pounds. It's slower than I thought it would be, and I have periods of quick weight loss followed by the doldrums, but it's a downhill slide and I'm okay with that. How's it going for the rest of you?

      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.
