Never give up guys. It's hard in the begining and can get harder when the weight loss slows but if you remember it's a tool and you use it as such success becomes easy.When you mess up just reflect then get back on it. Still got 20 odd pounds to lose but im getting there. :) Good luck peeps :)

Hey Lolly,

I was sleeved May 8th. So far so good. I know about trying to get all the liquids in. My doc told me right before I was wheeled into surgery to not worry about Protein this week. So far I eat Soup broths, sf Jello, Water, crystal light --- you know the drill. I'm walking more and more each day, probably up to a couple of miles a day. I don't want to weigh myself just yet; I'm waiting til my doc appt this Wednesday. I've been able to get out of the house each day to run errands or pick up deli Soups. I strain the soups, but the different broths are delicious. I'm going to make a tortilla soup tomorrow (of course strained). Starting Thursday I will introduce Protein Drinks. Do you feel the liquids going down your throat? Wishing your wonderful recovery. Hugs& prayers going your way.

Bridgett

      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.
