Stalls or slow weight loss be damned! Think about what you want to look and feel like. Say it out loud, "I am a success story in the making! I am doing this!". I believe we can create our destiny...keep thinking, saying or posting that "the sleeve isn't working for me" and it won't work. It doesn't work -we do the work. Even more so after surgery than during Pre-op and surgery and recovery. It's the lifestyle changes we must embrace after the sleeve together with a positive attitude about our future success that makes it happen! Some posts become rediculous- negative energy won't help anyone here! Just sayin'........

Slow weight loss/stalls can be beneficial. The biggest reason is that it is easier on your body. Healthier is more important than lighter.

Slow down and live:

      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.
