I was sleeved May 15. I didn't do a pre op diet but I'm down 12 pounds since surgery. I still feel a bit bloated! I know this is weird but I feel like I should have lost more! Oh well...patience has never been my virtue.

Sleeved on Monday (5/21). I have to admit that while I know I did the right thing, I feel awful. My surgeon went so far as to say my recovery has been atypical. I spent most of surgery day and the day after vomiting, spent three nights in the hospital instead of one and I'm still having trouble getting more than 3-4oz of Fluid down in an hour. I know it's all for the best and that this too shall pass, but ugh! My new mantra is "one sip at a time".

      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.
