Hey guys.

I just went for my first post op check up today. I did my surgery on 8/18 and my weight on surgery date was 328 lbs and now its 309.6.

So i lost a total of 18 lbs . Is that any good?? I got my drain stitch out and it itches like hell loool . The scars dont look too bad but im gonna have to get me some of that mederma cream. Anyone tried it??

I think that is an awesome amount to lose in 2 weeks. I had surgery on 8/15 and I am only down 10 pounds since surgery. My surgery weight was 235 and and only down to 224.6. Keep up the good work. I'm going for my post op today and was going to ask about the Mederma cream myself. I have heard good things about it.

      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.
