you can still do the counseling Kpaige.. Never too late ;)

I went through the saying goodbye to my fac's before preop diet time. Now 11 weeks post op and I have no desire to eat more than I should. It doesnt feel good. Got sick twice due to eating a little too much I think. I am just thankful to be losing weight and not feeling deprived, or like I am having to suffer. No longer dependant on my willpower which wasnt very strong. Hang on to the positives!!

thank you for the encouragement. in my mind pre-op i had this vision of flying through everything! forever the optimist! kind of turning in to a pessimist which i need to nip in the bud real fast!!! i guess i need to remind myself that i am only 12 DPO. doc mentioned something about top of sleeve maybe still swollen or possibly too tight. not sure if that will be something i have to deal with or if it's fixable. either way- this is my life now!!!

      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.
