I keep saying I want to be a certain weight and then I keep making it lower. I think 8 more and I'm done. Wore a size 4 dress yesterday and it was big on me. I think I'm pretty much done... But so scared to eat more. Now the hard part really starts...maintaining!!!

you said a "mouthful" ;)

Not always "peaches and cream" :lol:

ok, ok - once again i took an extra silly pill this morning :D

good that you realize that the sleeve work goes on, and on through the years-forever and a day

you must keep following the rules you did while getting to goal, but a smart cookie like you, knows that

Water, portions, et al

being at goal for me, i continue to eat, drink, and get my Protein in (pr is the hardest for me :angry: )

sure, you can calm down a "bit" at times w/eating something

but luckily/hopefully your sleeve will remind you to "knock it off"

"it doesn't want to get sick"

doesn't want your old habits back, with filling the tummy too often too much!

Awwwwwwww Sweetcarol - you look great in your new pictures!!! :)

i am closing my eyes and visualizing the new you, ;)

you look as good as you feel!!!!

127 lbs gone, gone, gone, down the toilet, FLUSH :o

you look so small, i'm afraid i almost can't see you!!!!

don't be afraid to eat, seriously, don't overdue , thats no good either

take care bud

kathy

congrats

      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.
