Recommended Posts

Hey Guys,

I am 15 months post op. Where are all my sleeve sisters? We have to support and share with each other how is the progress? It is not over until you say its over....If you have hit your 12 month post op and you are not at goal Do not give up.....I have been feeling so alone in my journey lately. I have gotten lazy about tracking my food and making a effort in what I eat. I want to personally thank cabernetqueen on YouTube for being a great source of information for me and has been my go to for a source of information. She has helped me realize that im not on my path i want to be and I can can turn it around its not over its not to late. I can not thank her enough for her words of wisdom during her journey. Thank you for your encouragement and your dedication to keep a record or your journey for the rest of us a reference and guide to your journey. I can not thank you ever enough.

We all are on a Journey and we all need a guide.

Hi I've been post op for only 3 mos now. I have to say that it hasn't been easy, but I'm happy with how much weight i've been losing. I was 326, and now I'm down to 259. So I am making progress. Your post is very encouraging to me in my journey, and I hope I feel just as great as you sound when I reach my 13 mos. :P

1'm 17 months post-op. Things are great! I eat what I want--mostly Protein, but it's cherry season here so I have a handful each day. I wear a size 6 and couldn't be happier. I am concentrating on body sculpting now, I'd like to be stronger. Life is great!

      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.
