Recommended Posts

hi guys been a while. got sleeved on 01-29-13. lost a total of 70 pounds thus far, looking to lose a lot more. however i have stopped for a little bit. the "plateau" phase maybe? haven't lost in almost 7-10 days. oh well. I'll keep working on it.

anyways, regarding coffee. I haven't had coffee since September.

But now....I have a 1 year old baby and my wife is also 4 months pregnant.

Needless to say, I am on no sleep. My daughter is teething and I'm up all night. I can't function the next day. I know it can dehydrate me so what I'm doing today....(my first coffee since Sept)

i got a small ice coffee - 1/2 regular 1/2 Decaf with skim milk. and i plan on drinking an extra 20oz of Water at least.

Speaking of which, i always take my multi gummies and my Vitamin B but sometimes I forget to take my calcium+D. i def feel it too. i feel tired and weak and sometimes lazy. I think it's because i hate the chewable tablets. i need to buy more of those little chocolate chew bites.

Yesterday on easter i did watch what i ate. I did notice i got some stomach pain on the left side yesterday. I'm thinking it was because my new jeans were tight and not because I overate.

still trying to stay clear of bread Pasta and rice, even Cereal.< /p>

hope you all had a good easter. thanks for reading. and I appreciate all and any input/advice. thank you

      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.
