I hit 317 this morning. I started the preop diet at 397 and was 377 for surgery on Valentines Day. I feel great, and I'm looking forward to hitting the 200's. Then I'll be in the right century!

I used to be like that. I haven't eaten at a restaurant since my preop diet. If we go out, it involves the food bar at whole foods and a tiny amount of food. My kids get pizza and my wife gets whatever.

Hi everyone. Haven't posted in a while.

My surgery was on 2/18.

I started process at 314, 307 on surgery day, and as of Sunday was 258. 56 pounds all together!! Woohooo!

My clothes are swimming on me, I've been able to get into old clothes that have been hanging in my closet for several years not being worn. I have more energy. I'm working out and getting stronger.

In addition to my full-time job, i'm also working part-time at Uhaul. Great exercise - girl of 5'3" climbing in and out of all those big trucks all day :)

My boyfriend said he can tell my weight loss by how my towel wraps around me now - no gap <_<

The best part is I'll work out until my legs feel like jelly and want to crawl into bed. But I wake up the next day with no pain! It's no longer taking me a week to recover from one workout!

Still a long way from my goal, but I actually feel like it's attainable. Even my shoes fit better. I wore heels yesterday for the first time in a long while and my feet didn't hurt!

I was sleeved on Feb 20, 2013 it went really well no problems what so ever. I weighed 294 when I started and on my surgery date weighed 270. I have since lost close to 40 lbs with pre weight 65lbs. I am happy with my sleeve and determined to get to my goal of 175, Right now I am 227 so I have roughly 52 lbs to lose. Wish me luck!

      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.
