Hi. You and I seem to be on the same path. I am 10 weeks out and have 40 more lbs to lose! What is working for me:

- Staying off the scale. Obsession with the scale makes me crazy and leads to bad eating behavior. As long as I am following my program, the weight will come off.

- Pushing myself just a little farther and faster when I exercise.

- Tracking my food using MyFitnessPal. It helps keep me mindful.

- Trying on my old clothes to see how far I have come.

- Being grateful. So grateful that I found this path, that my health issues have resolved, that I no longer dread every day of beating myself up over food, that I can see a happy future for myself instead of a miserable one of yo-yo dieting and related health problems.

Stick with your plan. Those 40 lbs will be gone in no time. It's going to be amazing!

I don't have as much restriction as I had when I first started eating solids. But I can still only eat a few ounces of solids (4-5). And just 4 oz of yogurt at a time. At least I am not causing myself pain like I did in the beginning and I am learning what full feels like (not something I ever felt before my sleeve).

What helped me was not drinking with meals. I was fooling around with a few sips while eating. I could eat more because I was washing the food through too fast. Now I set my timer at the end of a meal and don't drink until it goes off.

You are right thats probably my problem I am drinking while eating. I definitively have to stop that. Thanks

      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.
