Gee Did u exercise as well? U lost very fast!

No I have not exercised at all. I wish I could say that I have - I have started changing my habits by taking the stairs but nothing else.I am very strict on my calorie and Fluid intake, I am not obsessed with carb couting but I do make sure I get my Protein first.

I have averaged about 2.5 lbs per week. Thank you for reminding me how fast it is - I really can't see all of the weight I have lost.

I am 5'3" and I will be sleeved on December 21. I rarely wear jeans because they never fit right. The only thing small about me is my waist, so if I get them big enough to fit over my hips, thighs and belly, they swim around my waist. Small enough to fit my waist and I can't get them up over my thighs Or to close around my belly. On the occasion that I can find a jean that doesn't swim around my waist, they're too long and I walk on the ends. I actually really like being short. I don't like being short and fat!

      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.
