I know it can be but u have to make this journey your own. I'm only a little over three weeks out and I'm down 21.5 pounds but I had a small 1pound gain but I can't be discouraged I just moved from liquids to pureed foods. I spoke to a girl yesterday who I found out had her sleeve after I did and she is down 31pounds and told me she wasn't exactly following and I was like wow. But I had to think to each it's own this is my journey and I will just continue to work as hard as I can. You will lose more. Talk to your dietician to see what he or she says. In this journey I think support is key.

Well today I have the banana cream and it has 18 sugars,18 carbs and 11 Proteins. The caramel is high. It's good as a treat, but you have to really be careful. I don't take in that many sugars at one time, so the first time I had this one I was like Weee! So just have that in place of something sweet.

      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.
