post op weight 289

date of surgery 270

I'm eating 1200 calories a day and just started swimming yesterday. I had the flu for weeks and couldn't exercise.

How are the rest of you doing?

Hi...I was a January 10th sleeve. You are doing awesome. My surgery weight was 231 and I am now 195. I have not been doing too much regular exercise yet...I know...I need to get on it. I have been doing the tread mill sporadically but have been waiting for the weather to break so I can get walking outside. I have been trying to stay around 700-800 calories a day. I have a hard time getting all of my Protein in though. Most days I am closer to 50 a day instead of the 60-70 they recommend.

Hey, thats good that you lost 30 pounds since January. If you do exercise, you

should just walk around the block for 20 minutes on your day off from work it will

help.

Jan 9 too!!! Down 35lbs. Drink just Water, tru moo & coffee. I don't count calories, Protein or carbs. Eat mostly chicken & turkey, eggs, cheese, yogurt, nuts n soybeans. 5-6 bites n I'm full so why count? Feel great so far. No issues of vomiting or heartburn. I don't weigh myself everyday either. Just taking it day by day!

      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.
