Hi

A few issues with that is that with only 40 pounds to lose no dr should revise you.

Sencond thing is this' date='and this is a reality that I just started realizing for myself.There is no weight loss surgery on earth (well the Duodenal switch maybe) that will keep the weight off without our cooperation and input.That is something we have to make peace with and start cooperating.

Normal people gain en lose weight very often.We wanted to be normal,now we are.But there is work to do as a normal weight person as well.

You still have your sleeve.Work it like you did before.Start somewhere.Begin to eat 4oz of Proteins before you touch anything else,Breakfast,lunch and dinner.

See what happens!You might be very very pleasantly surprized.

I am rooting for you to sort this out without new surgery and without first needing to gain another 40 to be able to get a revision.

Good luck and let us know how you do.

      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.
