Hello all: I was sleeve on Oct 18, down 30 pounds so far, I only weigh myself once a month, my problem is my coworkers and friends/family can tell but I can't really see a different until I put on my clothes and what a mess it is :-) I have sum nice clothes but they aren't looking good on me, I did had to purchase a pair of slack and a blouse for our christmas party and I went from a size 22/24 to a 18 in pants, shirts size from 24/2x down to an xl so I'm sure I can rock my new sleeve. food wise I have to make myself eat, might eat once or twice a day and that's good enough for me..

Oct. Sleevers are doing fantastic!!! We had Halloween and Thanksgiving to make it through and we still did great! I'm most happy to report my BMI went from 44 to 38 since Aug. (start 278- 219 today! -59 pounds!) Can't eat everything and am taking it very slow. I'm just starting exercising today - cleared yesterday since I also had hernia repaired. Need to tighten and tone fo' sure! good luck making it through cookie and cocktail season!

I'm down 44 lbs since surg on 10/25. Not getting my fluids in! Still drink one prot drink per day because i can only get 1/4 c food in at a time. Dense prot even less. But most foods i'm handling ok, even salad. Still cant do coffee, hamburger meat, or eggs. I'm 50/F 5'10. Not exercising :(

      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.
