I need a sleeve buddy. I had surgery in July and have only lost 20 pounds. Someone please help me.

It's been since June 19 since I had my surgery, I have stayed at 25-30 lbs loss since then. I'm very discouraged, but I won't give up. I'm not able to work out much do to other problems. I started high Protein today, with very few carbs to try to kick start this again! Don't give up!

Don't give up we all lose differently. 20#s is amazing, losing at a slower pace is better.

I'm a newbie and would also like a buddy. Surgery on 10/11/12 and I'm so uncomfortable. I keep getting myself upset thinking something is wrong with me! Non-stop belching is exhausting! Could the whey Protein be reacting differently since the operation? I've been in really good spirits-lost over 20 lbs. on Pre-op, but the hiatal hernia was fixed with sleeve and now I really feel awful!

Yes, the Protein will do that to you. Everything is different after having the sleeve done!

      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.
