Do you live in the city or a suburb? We have a small sleever group that meets occasionally( not monthly) . It is nice just to be able to talk and share recipe ideas and foods that we have found that are worth trying. We would love for you to join us if you can next time we meet. It will probably be after the first of the year when we meet again.

I was sleeved in Mexicali by Dr. Aceves. I am 4 weeks out and down 17.5 lbs. Is this normal or slow?

I think you are doing great. We can't compare our weight loss to others, all of our bodies work differently. I am 3 months out tomorrow and down 32 pounds. It has been very slow for me lately. We will reach the goals we have, it just takes time ;)

      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.
