60 Pounds Lost In 60 Days



Recommended Posts

Well, today is the 6 week Surgiversary of my Sleeve and the 8 week mark since I started on my pre-op diet. I can hardly believe that I am down 60 pounds. I must admit that I don't see all of them, but I do feel them.

If anyone out there is doubting that the sleeve can work, please reach out to my privately. I will share with you how, in just a very short period of time it has had a profound impact on my life!

What has been the hardest for you so far and did you ever worry about any possible complications? I guess i'm a worrier because thats all my pre-op mind can think about is the numerous things that can go wrong....it doesn't help that I just read two stories today that the people involved have almost died and one of them was sleeved back in August and is still in and out of the hospital today :-/ I'm having doubts now if this is something i should do, after reading their stories. Do I risk it all and have this surgery so that I can be more active with my 3 little children (the twins are 6 and my youngest is 3) and take them to six flags or disney and actually be able to ride the rides with them, or do I just continue to live life on the sidelines and play it safe? Sigh....decisions, decisions :-/

      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.
