I'm 4/21/2012!

Dropped slightly more than 10lbs now.

I've been struggling, one day feeling good, the other feeling really weak...

Like today, was going to collapse while walking..

I really have no appetite to get any food in... :(

Cant find any buddy to meet up in Singapore.. Was hoping to get some support from this forum!

Cheers everyone!

I was sleeved on the 19th but won't know how much I have lost until the 30th. It has been a tough week and still sore.

Hi babypumas! I was sleeved on the 19th too. I'm feeling pretty good. It seems like one day you'll wake up and notice how good you feel. It just gets better and better each day. Hang in there! Keep up on your meds and keep resting.

Thanks, I am taking it one day at time and trying to rest as much as I can while the kids are in school but I am so glad I did this.

Welcome and congrats on your surgery. It is like that in the beginning. I feel like that sometimes, but less so now that I am almost one month. You really need to watch your Fluid intake. Make sure you are getting all of your Water. And take it easy. Take naps when you need to. It's major surgery, so it will take awhile. Good luck to you! Best wishes.

Congrats to everyone!!!! Hope everything is going good for everyone! :) I think things are slower than what I was expecting. I was sleeved on the 3rd & have lost 18.3 lbs. I am thankful for every pound, but it seems to be coming off slow.

      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.
