I had surgery on 10/15. I'm down 51lbs! 21 prior to surgery and 30 since. HW421 SW400 CW370. I haven't really felt a huge difference yet, because my weight is still very high. It will take a lot before I begin to really feel the effects. I've had more good days than bad as I am still trying to figure out what I can eat and how much I can eat. I have every confidence this is going to work and I am going to get to my goal of being under 200 pounds. It does take a while to figure everything out! It's definitely a life changing experience but it's a change for the better.

I just was sleeved 12/15 but I am still well over 300. I started the 2 week liquid diet at 365.

I'm looking forward to getting back into the 200's.

It appears that Amy's husband has hijacked her login. That is just creepy. If we wants to participate on this board for support with his weight loss surgery I suggest he get his own login.

I also hope Amy is ok.

Do a search on this site. Many people have gone to Mexico, there is a whole subforum related to surgery in Mexico.

As to pregnancy after WLS I don't know if there is a subforum but I have definitely seen posts.

I notice that must sleeves are in the high 200's but is there anyone who started higher. My weight day off was 362 give or take a pound....my doctor told me the most common procedure for my weight was the bypass but the long term results are very much the same. Im 5'7" but I definitely strated off way bigger than some posts I see...just curious to know I'd I'm alone lol

Dstined4gr8tnes

I am very similar to you in size. I started at 364. I am 5'8". I had a sleeve July 30. I am down 104 lbs. Did you have surgery already? And if so did you have the sleeve or bypass?

Had my sleeve, hernia repair and gallbladder removed Tuesday at 314. My highest weight was 497 back in the 1999. 5 days post op and I am 307. If you follow the high Protein & vegs the weight will come off. I hope to be well below 300's before I return to work late Feb.

      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.
