Wondering - is anyone else concerned about our overall nutrition? I'm getting at least 60 grams of Protein per day but not eating alot of veggies and almost no fruit or whole grains.

I take a Multi-Vitamin, Calcium, Vitamin D, B12, Omega 3, and Biotin daily - but I've always thought that getting most of my nutrition from food was much better than getting it from supplements.< /p>

I'd be interested in your thoughts my Sleeve Sisters (are there any men in our little band of merry losers???).

I am eating so much healthier than I was pre sleeve. I ate a lot of fast food, processed food and just plain junk! I am now preparing my meals ahead of time and loving it. I think my nutrition is much better now! I was also not taking Vitamins before. Kinda surprised I'm still alive... lol

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!! So... I don't feel like I over ate at all today... But I think the introduction of too many different foods has made Steve the Sleeve very unhappy. I had a bite of most everything but honestly just dumped everything right after I ate it. Kinda bummed but it is what it is!!

      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.
