I did it. I am 299.5 this morning!!!! I made it to the 200's. I can't believe it. I don't even recall the last time the scale was under the 300's. So glad I made this decision. It was so right for me.

Now if we can just know that Jimmy is ok, I would truly have a reason to Celebrate. This is the bad part of our close April group. How far away we are all. I am pretty sure that if we lived close, we would all be there in person for him. Hang in there Jimmy. We are still pulling for your recovery. Hugs via the cyber network.

Congrats Willowsknot!

We have jeans day at work today for a cookout...I brought my own lunch since my very conservative dr wants me on purée until 2 months post op. Had to find a belt this morning! Something I didn't need to keep my pants up three weeks ago before surgery!!

This has happened to me twice. Two weeks and one lb. then this weekend...six lbs. it's so discouraging but remember its a marathon, just keep at it. I try to.

Me too. I stayed at the same weight for a week. 202, 202,202........ It was driving me nuts

I was sleeved on April 24th and hit my stall at 2 weeks post op. Finally, finally I hit 199 today!!!

But one thing to take into consideration, you lose major inches too!! I dropped many pant sizes, in just the 3 weeks Ive been sleeved. I have also been going hard core exercise since last week, to make sure I don't lose muscle tone!!!

Good luck to all us April Sleevers!!

My surg was 4/24 and I am down 18 lbs! I feel good and had someone at work tell me that my face looks thinner so I guess that's my first nsv? Lol i have been struggling getting my Protein Drinks in, but I'm workin on it. I had my first incident with stuck food.. Started mushies late last week and obviously wasn't ready.. I was in agony for about 6 hours, so I learned from that to take it slower.

      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.
