Sleeved on the 16th of Jan and I'm a truck driver and man do I have to think ahead to figure what food and which whey Protein Powder I feel like drinking all week till I get home. But so far so good, as of today down 90 lbs and feeling absolutely youthful again.

Keep up the good work everyone.

I haven't checked in for a while but thought I would pop in real quick. Surg date 1/9/13.

Hw 268

Sw 228

Cw 191

Total loss 77 lbs.

it's coming off pretty slowly. I don't always get my Protein and a few weeks back' date=' I started just hating the whole drinking liquids thing. Water doesn't taste good. Sobes don't taste good. So it's been a bit of a struggle. I'm not unhappy with the slow loss but do worry if I don't take it off fast enough that window will start to close and the opportunity will be lost. Anyway, how is everybody else doing?[/quote']

I'm also a 01/09/13 surgery date

I've lost 52 since surgery, twenty before, but am in a three week stall. I had a stall at mo 2 for a month though and then started up again.

I am hoping that happens again but my eating is all off. I have not had enough fluids for weeks so tomorrow I will concentrate on that before protein.I get enough protein because I bought a whey protein supplement ( The only one I think tastes totally delicious) by Natures research.

It is so good you can eat it with a spoon alone! Kind of tastes like a vanilla malt. SO how am I doing? I started losing hair a couple weeks ago and that is weird. I am really jiggly on my belly and started wearing an undershirt that holds my jiggly belly still! I have lost a lot of muscle ( I was seriously I'll the last three years and was sedentary) but I didn't realize how much muscle I've lost. I am lifting weights and swimming 3 times a week. I am taking one day at a time. I am staying positive.

I've been a stall for several weeks too. I am eating stuff I shouldn't...chips, a glass of wine on the weekends. But I'm exercising 4 days a week minimum yet the scale isn't moving. Frustrated that I had this surgery and still self sabotage. I'm my own worst enemy. Plus I feel like I'm about to shoot out of these jeans like a rocket. Maybe that's why I'm feeling so negative today.

      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.
