My op was march 15 th. I'm 26 lbs down and thrilled. I feel more confident all ready and I've dropped at least 1 dress size. Still got long way to go but so far so good. The only problem I have is fatigue and not drinking enough Water. But small price to pay for feeling better about my size.

3/26 - 30 lbs down and I hit the dreaded 3 week stall! Fortunately I was cleared to go back to the gym and I'm now on purées. Hopefully that will help!

March 18th lost 30 pounds first two weeks since then it's been slow going... Down 34 lbs total. Got in 105 grams of Protein yesterday!! Amazing!!! I am getting about 70 oz of Water daily. Haven't excercised at all yet. I walk a lot at my job so I think that helps. Just living day by day. Took a long time to put on this extra weight so it will come off in time! 250 start weight down to 216. 16 pounds until one-derland.

      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.
