Hello New Mexico!! How's everyone doing??

I will be 6 weeks postop tomorrow(Monday)

I am doing ok... I'm trying to go to the gym at least 4 days a week and usually eat around 400 cals or under--- this weekend was diff!! I kinda grazed and ate out alot and granted smaller portions.... But alot more than I had.... Kettle corn street movies, ghengus grill cake etc!!! But I am actually down a lb!!

I gave an appointment tomorrow w an eating disorder specialized as I do not want to fall into bad habits etc..,

So we should all try to meet up again and hopefully we can all make it!!

To post a pic it is easier on the smart phone, I think. After you reply, look for the little 'plus sign' next to the send button. See if that works for ya. :)

Hi!!!! :)

It went realllly good! No complications! I stayed 2 days in the hospital no issues besides the nurses coming to bug me to walk! Cindy was great!! Very sweet Liz as well!

I've seen him 2 times since- I haven't been Taft impressed after-- as I realized other drs take pics and give u stricter guides like dobt go over a certain cal a day or carbs and they give guides but follow paleo- I just wish it was more definite answers - just my pref tho-

When do u have it? It has def been worth it? What's your stats? I was 319 -- In the hospital I gained what I'd lost pre surgery and it stayed that 1st week but then I lost it plus some!!

I was sleeved feb 25th so almost 4 months-- I am down to 250.4!!!! Went from tight tight tight 26 to 22 some smaller --:)

Good 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.
