Sleeved on March 20th, 2013. Still eating only 600-800 calories a day, and most foods still hurt. Soft foods are best still for me. But this too shall pass. I am feeling so much better otherwise.

Hello! I was sleeved March 6, 2013. Surgery weight was 221 my current weight as of today is 179 total lost of 42 so far, no stalls. I pretty much eat a well balanced diet, for breakfast (protein shake, oatmeal or egg whites w/ almonds) lunch (salad with lean Protein, I still do not eat red meat or pork and dont intend to) Snacks (greek yogurt, string cheese, fresh fruit/fresh veggies, pickles) Lots of Water dinner (protein shake or leftover lunch) I do eat bread and sweets and starch very moderately and only maybe once or twice a week... for the most part it's a clean diet, work out 5 times a week... and seeing great results....

I was sleeved 3/29. Down 34 lbs. went through a 3 week stall which was TOUGH! Just came out of the stall with 4 pounds lost. Oatmeal, Greek yogurt or egg for breakfast, string cheese snack, small piece of baked fish or Protein Shake for lunch, fruit or a little hummus for afternoon snack, and a bite of whatever Protein the family has for dinner. Walking helps a lot!

I was sleeved 4/1. Down 25 pounds. Going though a 4 week stall and still no weight loss.

Greek yogurt or egg for breakfast

tuna or turkey breast for lunch...sometimes a Protein shake

laughing cow cheese and wasa crisp snack

whatever dinner is for family.

Haven't gotten much exercise in except for walking here there, but nothing steady.

Trying to get at least 64oz of fluids daily.

Really hope the weight loss starts up again.

      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.
