Hi Alliecat1095' date=' I am doing fine now.so sorry for the very very late reply. My stay in the hospital ended up being a couple of days longer than anticipated. When I got home I had a bit of a hard time adjusting. Then I went through the "why am I not losing any more weight since I got out of the hospital". I started my journey weighing 265, my pre-op weight was 239. I am 5 Weeks post-op now weighing 213 a total of 52lbs lost! I just figured I would have lost more weight after the surgery, but I realize now that i'm doing great! Sorry for the rambling, just decided to hit you with a full update : )[/quote']

I am glad you are doing great. You are having a great loss. Remember you did not gain it in one day so do not expect to loose in a few weeks. I have only lost 9lbs since my surgery 0829 and a total of 2y lbs since 7/2.. I started at 229 and I am at 203.. I stalled very quickly the first day I started full liquids.. But I keep chugging along. Watching what I eat and drink my shakes and drinking diluted Isopure.. I pray that this stall will pass soon. Keep up the great work..

      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.
