I had to buy a new scale. My digital one wasn't moving and I felt something wasn't right. Low and behold I buy a new one and I am 12lbs less than what I thought. Thank God I was worried

I'm going to Schlitterbahn Wednesday and I'm wearing a size 14 swim suit lol that was way too small last year. Not sure why I even had it, I maybe accidentally picked it up at a garage sale or something. Lucky me now though :) I have wore a 14 in maybe 12+ years!

Sleeved May 21st at HUMC by Dr. Trivedi. Started at 232 lbs and down to 207 lbs. lost 19 lbs post op. I am so happy to find May sleevers. I thought I was losing too slowly until I came across this thread. Appears I'm on track, so feeling less frustrated and a bit more confident! I'm always looking for recently sleeved friends on my fitness pal. My name is herst0ry (0=zero).

      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.
