I love this month! October is my sleeve's 1 year anniversary (Birthday?) as of the 4th. That's just 3 more days. I am totally in love with my body size and striving to keep it here. CONGRATS to all October sleevers! :rolleyes:

Woot! It seems like just yesterday I was complaining about having to do a 6 month diet and now I'm two weeks out. Now if the next 6 months go by just as fast!

Happy Sleevetoberfest everybody!!!

Looking forward to it more and more every day. And getting more and more anxious/nervous every day too. But mostly, just finally want to be a big loser and get my life back. 2 week pre-op is this Thursday....

      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.
