Thats great! The fist 3-4 weeks is typically the fastest loss, then it tapers off usually a couple months out it gets down to a few lbs a week.

I also had my sleeve on the 12th and am down 25lbs (although 14 of those were from my 2 week pre-op diet). I'll take it, though! I think that I need to go back to weighing weekly, because I've been the same weight for the past 5 days. I so don't want to get back into letting the numbers on the scale discourage me.

Congrats to you! :)

Enjoy!!! Congratulations! Don't forget that it will taper down soon, and stall at some point, but in the meantime... isn't it awesome?!?!? Watching the numbers just go down and down and down :) You are doing amazing!

      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.
