Recommended Posts

I'm new here and wanted to see who had their surgery around the same time I did, meet some new friends and see how you are doing along with whats been working well for you! I had my surgery Feb. 8, 2012 no pre-op diet except for day before and my weight was 407, last weigh in was April 13,2012 and I weighed 351 so overall I'm cool with the results so far in two months. Hit me up and let me know how your doing.

I had my surgery Feb 15th. I'm doing great and very happy with my results so far. I've lost 48 lbs and 40 inches total. I eat pretty normal food now. Just really small amounts. I also go to the gym a few times a week to do cardio and weights. I really feel back to normal now.

The biggest change for me is how I feel about food now. I just eat because I have to. I used to eat until the point of being sick and way over full. I love that I am not able to do this to myself anymore. I no longer over eat I just eat what I need to and go on with my day.

I love my sleeve. :)

I had my surgery on 2/9/12. I just hit 30 lbs down. That includes 10 lbs I lost on the preop diet. I've always be a slow loser and have hypothyroid. I feel pretty good. Still have some fatigue but am walking an hour a day. I'll start gym soon to start trying to build muscle.

I was sleeved Feb 6th. I've lost 30 lbs. I'm a slow loser.....also have hypothyroid. Plus, I'm 66 yrs old and I think that makes a difference. I really haven't gotten into exercising, but just joined a gym. My biggest problem is getting enough Protein in. I'm happy w my results so far and don't mind losing slowly.

      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.
