I weight my self every Sunday Last Sunday I was 205 pounds. This Sunday I will weight again and am dreaming of the scale reading 199! I started this path at 288. My highest weight was 300. (Depression and sadness can really kill you) At 12 I weighed 230 and was able to wear my fathers pant that were a size 38! Today I'm so exited and ecstatic that I'm gonna be in Onederland and it is real! I no longer feel bad about my self or am self consious when a thin person passes by. I love my sleeve and am so lucky to have finally found the greatest awesomest(is that a word?) tool in the world to help me :) be healthy and happy with my self. I now feel like a woman. I always felt tom boyish and never felt feminine. So this week or next week I will definantly will be in onederland in over 15 years. Good luck to everyone else and stay strong, If you fall down get right back up. The sleeve makes it easier to :)

I weighed in at 206.8 this morning. I'm hoping to be in onderland in another week or two or possibly sooner :) It's been a slow process but hopefully after I get my period the scale will start to move again. I haven't had any plateaus but the weight has been coming off slow and steady since I was sleeved in Oct.

      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.
