I eat anything I want although I do try and eat healthy. If I do happen to ever reach my goal weight I am going to have some plastic surgery on my arms thighs and tummy.

Hello I hope I am not being a pessimist for every one but this is a genuine question. On another site I read that some sleevers were having more surgery later ( don't know how much later) to be RE SLEEVED

I was shocked and thought the sleeve was a permanent tool. Can anyone please enlighten me??????

I have been wearing shapeless clothes for so many years n had to work for a week at office. All I wore was one pair of sneakers cuz didn't want to go out. My bff suggested men's shoes n got the MOST comfortable Sketchers w memory foam in men's. What a crock! Women's socks n shoes suck! Men have the BEST socks n most comfy shoes n can't even tell. Another injustice! Lol

      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.
