8 days post-op and down 10 lbs. I am starting to struggle with the liquids but I am getting there. Wish I could relax and stop worrying about when I lose 75 lbs! Taking it a day @ a time. Jogged for the first time yesterday, did it again today. I NEVER thought I'd say that!

Jogged!?! I'm impressed. I doubt I will be doing that any time soon, ok, maybe never. How in the world did you mange to be able to jog this soon out of surgery?

Lol! Well it was more like a walk/jog but it was more than I have ever done before! I walk about 2 minutes, then jog for two, then keep switching. I am still getting used to exercising, but I am down 31 lbs total and feel great!

      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.
