Have lost 23.5. Had a stall week 3 but it was that time of the month for me. I can't tell yet but friends and family say they can. Only got sick once. I drink as much Fluid as possible. Trying to go to the gym more often, think that will help me a lot.

I haven't got to go to the gym yet:-( I've been walking alot though. So far so good no complications thank god. I have been reading alot on this forum and it has me paranoid, thinking about no matter how far out from surgery how you can still get leaks.

Sleeved Dec 4th also!! Lost 34lbs so far. I've been having a real hard time getting Protein in. I loved the Protein Drinks before surgery and can't stand them now. Been getting almost all my Water in but not all.

34 lbs that's awesome. I miss carbs and trying to limit them. I feel like if I have one bite of a carb i don't lose. I'm down 23 but I am looking forward to more :)

Thank you. I haven't moved for a couple days now. Kinda stuck...maybe my 1st stall? I'm trying hard to be strict to my diet but its been real hard lately with the holidays. I haven't been exercising nearly enough so if I stick to my diet and start exercising regularly I'm sure ill start losing. Started at 244, now 210...I want to be under 200 so freaking bad!

I was sleeved December 4th too! Down about 20 lbs since surgery and about 30 since starting the process. I have been struggling with the Water part too, but am working out as much as possible.

I was sleeved on the 4th as well. Since surgery I'm down 38lbs but since pre-op dieting I'm down about 44lbs. I think I hit my 1st stall and it has lasted about 2 weeks or so. It has me super bumed. I just went back to work this past Monday and its been hard trying to remember to eat or drink something because I get super busy. And during my lunch I decided to start walking the full 30mins of my lunch. I just want to see a change on the scale. :/ I don't feel like I eat alot. What kinds of foods are you guys eating right now?....I need some ideas. (maybe I'm not eating right idk)

      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.
