And yes, those are adult footie pajamas... Didn't buy them because I'm not that crazy, but I just had to try them on!

Kudos to you! How long have you been sleeved? Also what would you say was the hardest part of being sleeved/the recovery process?

Five months and a few days out.

Hardest part... Would be having gallbladder issues and having to get my gallbladder removed. That just happened a week ago. But I have had a pretty easy time with this thus far... I have gone through my fair share of stalls and periods when food doesn't agree... But all worth it!

I suspect I wont have any gall bladder issues as I had mine removed in 2005, would you be willing to elaborate on your stalls and food disagreements? Tentatively I will be having my surgery in late March early April 2013

Stalls normally happen around the time of my period... (I also was able to and wanted to eat some more around that time)

Also... I got the infamous three week stall.

As far as overcoming the stall.. I really didn't do anything. I just continued doing what I was doing.

I was doing pretty well with exercise for a whole but have been slacking recently.

As far as foods that disagree with me... Let me just say that I have never thrown up... But it gives me diarrhea

I don't do well with any kind of egg (fried or omlete). Anything too high in sugar. Anything too high in fat. At the beginning anything acidic or with garlic powder upset my stomach.

      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.
