Awesome job! Thanks for the photos. And you can join me in the "never-puked-since-being-sleeved" club. I'm almost 2 years post-op and it hasn't happened to me yet! ;)

Knock on wood..

I never puke.. I hate it..

That is funny because it is on my all-time list of most hated things. I was considering the band (before I learned about the sleeve) and then I found out that sometimes if food doesn't go down it comes back up...and I could never wrap my mind around that.

I think if you are this far out and it hasn't happened yet, it's not going to! B)

Was that your highest weight or the weight on the day of surgery. Could you give an idea of what your daily menu is as well as your physical activity so I can copy your plan!!

My weight was 347, day of surgery was 336, I count the start of my journey as my start weight.. I honestly don't have a magical diet, I stay very active.. And pretty much eat what I want.. My portions are tiny, but I feel the key to my success is activity..

Ok, ok, I have to add my WOWS and congrats, as well. You've done amazingly. But I have to add for the ladies...men have it all over us in the weight loosing department, so don't expect similar results. I'm not diminishing your efforts, which had to be great or you would not have been so successful. Ya dun good!!

      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.
