All of my December sleevers...



Recommended Posts

I hope you all don't mind but I think this thread should be in the December 2012(!) Sleevers forum. Am I right? If so, happy sleeve-a-versary to you all!

My goal is about 170 as well -- surgery date weight around 237 and began journey at about 260 so I lost a bit on my own

Still in pain and have regrets due to hernia repair and difficulty sipping fluids and staying hydrated and strong

I'm looking at the brighter side that surgery went well and I'm hopeful the weight will fall off cause I'm already down 20 since surgery on dec12

A year. It has been a year. An awesome year. 12/21/12 sleeved along side my sleeve buddy thecurvyjones. I am rocking this sleeve and loving the decision to use Dr Alvarez. I raise my Protein Shake to toast all the 2012 December sleevers. Here's to you!

Don't give up but don't focus on those last 10 pounds for a week or two. Take a dancing class ballroom,line dance or something else fun like that might just be what you need to get loosing kick started again. My son got married in October and we took dance lessons. I had a blast and lost a pound or two in the process. Don't give up.

My goal is somewhere around 150 but 273 will be 100 lbs down so that's what I'm looking for 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.
