Hi My name is Cynthia. I got sleeved 11 days ago and I am 29. I got this surgery bc I really want to have a baby soon and I decided I don't want to be obese and pregnant. So here I am, post-op and reminding myself every minute that I want to eat real food that I have a reason:0/. Glad I'm not alone.

Thanks so much guys! I need all the support I can get because I feel like people I work with and my Facebook friends are looking at me like I am taking the easy way out. But even if you do this' date=' you still have to work at it!

Hi Brooke, let me tell you something you can tell your co-workers and Facebook friends, this surgery is so far from being the easy way out that its not even funny! It requires a lot of dedication and hard work, so you can let them know that they don't know what they are talking about. You keep your head up and good luck!

      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.
