I really hated looking at myself before my sleeve. However, one of my dearest friends had taken a picture of me 1-month before my surgery while at a football game. This picture truly showed how large I had become. I hated this picture, but it's proof of what the sleeve can do for you. The second picture is this past weekend. The success of my sleeve is truly visible. I'm very proud to have taken the opportunity to save my life and make the sleeve work for me. Good luck to all of you who have undergone and/are beginning this transformation.

Lissa, you are correct. She told me before and after the surgery. I was beautiful, period! She is truly a wonderful friend to me. I love her dearly.

      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.
