I lost weight in my face first followed by my feet. After that there was a mass exodus of fat from the stomach. Chest and arms leaned out. Now I lose it from all over and don't really notice a specific location getting smaller. That said, I have dropped 10 pant sizes and 3 shirt sizes so far on this journey. I could not be happier about this progress.

I've only noticed in my face a little bit so far, but I notice my clothes are starting to fit a little better too, but I don't see that I really look thinner yet, but it's still early, it will take a while to see it myself, after so many years of being overweight.

First noticed in my face as well, but not a lot. I am 4 wk post op an have been stalled for 2 wks with any scale loss. However, I plan to do my measurements on the anniversary of my sleeve every month (idea from another post on this site) and today was my first post op measuring. Lost 4 inches in bust, 2 inches from my hips, 1 inch from my waist and 2 inches from each arm. However, gained an inch on thighs and an inch on the calfs. All in all, glad with results. It does help when you don't see the scale moving.

To OP, don't worry. You will see the difference in your face soon. It's probably already changing just too subtle right now for you to notice. One morning you'll wake up, look in Tue mirror and TADA!! Hang in there! :)

I've noticed my butt shrunk!! Also my boobs and back fat. Tummy & hips still here. Oh, and my calves!! They are now tiny!! Very odd. As a result, it really hasn't been a huge diff. People tell me i look healthier and have more color in my face. I honestly think it's also inflammation has decreased. That's why i won't go back on carbs. Anyone w previous joint issues should pay attention to that. :-)

      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.
