Wow, 50 lbs, that's amazing. I'm feeling a bit "fail" but how is it possible to fail. I log the calories i'm ingesting, but the weight is not just falling off me like it is some. Wonder can we do a roll call - see who has lost what so far? I'm only down about 20 since surgery. I won't complain since 20 in a month is still good news, but it seems like i'm on the slow boat comparitively since i haven't dropped a pound in two weeks, scale is just starting to budge again. How y'all doing?

Thank you! 30 lbs is great! I didn't expect more than 20 so I'm happy. Although, I'm concerned with month 2 as I've read some of the August sleevers posts and I'm not very encouraged. What kind if "goal" should we be setting for month 2? What's y'all's input?

Thanks! 30 lbs is great too! I never would have guessed I'd even lose 30 by now. I'm concerned with month 2. I have been reading the August sleevers posts and its the least bit encouraging. What should our goal be for month 2?

I'm here also, have lost 31 lbs but have been stalled for almost 3 weeks. I also have made some poor food choices and find it hard to fit exercise in ky schedule. I have got to get on track again and do this!!!

      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.
