I'm down 42 pounds. 12 pounds pre-op. I'm just floored at this. I have my 2nd post surgery follow-up with the doc on Tuesday. I'm hoping I graduate to real food!

I was sleeved on June 14. Down 43 lbs so far. Just got the OK to add veggies to the diet. I'm so happy to see something on my plate besides Protein, protein, protein!!!

I was sleeved 6/25 and have been eating real food since 7/22 and I am doing pretty good. I eat mostly protein..I usually eat veggies in Soups. I don't do the Protein Shakes very often because they make me sick. If I drink them it's mostly in the evening because it is easier then. I usually eat about every three hours. I have an egg w/cheese for Breakfast or no cheese and a 35 calorie turkey sausage.

I was sleeved on 6/4, so yesterday was officially 2 months. I have lost 52 lbs (including the 15 lbs lost on the two week pre-op torture diet) I am down 62 lbs from my highest weight, 272 and I am so glad I will never see that number on the scale again! I am down three sizes! I feel really great. food is still a bit of a struggle, finding the right things to eat and the right quantities, but it gets better every day.

I was sleeved on the 23rd and I have lost 34 lbs so far - all post-op. I have been on soft foods for about two weeks. I am able to eat pretty much anything but sticking to Protein and veggies. I am really excited for all of us!

Slowly losing but down 34lbs, since June 18th... Slow I say because I have 160lbs to lose, thought it would be falling off at first. I guess slow and steady wins the battle too.

      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.
