Made it to 1 month!



Recommended Posts

Hello Dec 19 Sleevers. We are 1 month out today. YAHHH!!!

My progress is still very very slow but am trying my best not to get discouraged. Stalled with the exception of 2 pounds in the last 2 weeks. I'm 15pounds down since surgery day.

HW - 228

Pre-Op diet - 224

SW - 218

CW - 203

I guess I can't complain because my pre- opt diet was just 5 days so maybe I can say I've lost 21pounds in 1 month?

Also I want to try the Ricotta Bake I found on here. Anybody else tried this just 4 weeks out?

Woot Woot! Dec. 21 here!

I am following your exact path. I'm down 14 lbs since surgery and have not lost anything the last week +. I have a feeling mine is linked to carb intake- while I am careful, I still have 40-50 grams a day. At this point, Protein shakes make me GAG, but I know if I incorporate more into my day, I'll start losing again. All we can do is our best :)

I made the ricotta bake last night and it is DELISH! I made them in single serve ramekins (hearts!) and they are really yum. I would like to up the veg factor by adding steamed spinach and maybe mushrooms. I'm cleared to eat anything at this point. (not that I am)

      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.
