Recommended Posts

I was sleeved May 8th! I am feeling great. Start mushies tomorrow. Lots of energy. Lost 13 pounds preop and 12 since surgery but no loss in past week. Still, living my sleeve. Finally feel in control of my food, not a slave to it!

High weight: 275

Surg weight After two week preop diet: 262

Current weight: 250

Enjoying how much time I have now that I'm not obsessing about food all the time. My family is happy, too. Can't wait to lose more and continue this journey.

Tell me your story!!! :)

I had my sleeve on May 16th.....only last week. I'm still pretty sore and not sleeping much cuz I can't seem to get comfy. I'm still pretty happy I went ahead with the surgery. my original date was April 8th but there were complications with the breathing tube that caused me to spend some time in the hospital but that still did not discourage me. I redid the liquid diet and had a successful surgery the 16th. I started out at 261....after liquids was 234 and now I'm 225. Pretty excited!!

      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.
