I had to share this with my fellow Mexi-Sleevers 1st.

I weighed in on my 2 week Surgiversary today at my doc's office. I'm officially down 27 lbs! Feeling good and so motivated! I go back in 3 weeks. I think I may "weight" until then to weigh in again!!!

Thank you! I was, like many I'm sure, terrified I'd be that wild exception that fails at the sleeve.

I've followed the postop instructions to a T. Plus walking off and on all day.

10 days Clear liquids. 10 days full liquids which is where I am now. My goal is around 600-700 calories and 50+ grams of Protein. I'm using MFP to track it.

Protein Shakes with Water... Yeah those are clear. Full liquids would be cream Soups. Milk. Now that I'm on full liquids I add unsweetened almond milk to my Protein Shakes rather than Water. More filling. More nutrients.

      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.
