Same here.. Got my sleeve Saturday nov 10... it'll be one week tomorrow yay!!! I've lost almost 12 pounds which I consider too much for one week considering I only have around 68 to loose... I want to loose fast but not that fast... It's no good for my health or my skin...anyway I know it's gonna come back to bit me when I stall or slow down a lot... Other than that everything has been going great!!!! I would love to make friends that are going through the same thing so feel free to message me!!!

Looking forward to talking to you guys!

I won't be sleeved until next month but I would love a group of people experiencing similar things to join. I'm a 24 year old English teacher in Maine. My program runs many support groups but I am the youngest one there by about 20 years! I often feel out of place and uncomfortable joining in.

      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.
