African American Sleevers



Recommended Posts

Hello,

Why is African American Sleevers a thread instead of a Special Interest group? Can the thread be moved into a subforum there? There are a lot of topics pertaining specifically to black people, and I think we need a subforum for it as well.

Yes, I know about the social group, it is a little difficult to find, and there is not much activity there. It should be listed under the special interest groups, so it can be seen on the home page, and more people would know about it.

Hey! I just ran across this site. There is quite a bit of good info on here. I'm glad I found it. My name is Jackie. I just got sleeved 8/15/13. I'm only down 13lbs. I thought I'd lose weight quicker than that. I'm not able to stomach more than 2-4oz of anything. Am I the only one having this problem? :mellow:

      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.
