Recommended Posts

I know I've said it before but I love your hair! You and your daughter are beautiful. Congrats! You look great :)

Thanks, Barb!

I am lucky. I have so much hair, I don't know if I will notice if some falls out!

I have three girls, all of them are lovely!

I have gotten an amazing support system here on Bariatric Pals and figured I would give this a shot as well. Being sleeved in October of last year I've gotten pretty close to some people on here and have received a lot of support. There is currently a Fundraiser being held for a medical devise I am in need of called a WalkAide which the insurance company has denied. This device is a life changer for me. Below is the link to read my brief story. ANY help would be beyond appreciated, every dollar is a step towards my getting the device! Thank you all for all the support you have given me and keep up the amazing work!!!

Well I had my 3 month check up and the doc said I'm doing great I'm down 70 pounds but I'm stalled out again and I told home I want to be below 300 by end of February so he said go back in my shakes and they will do it so for the month of February I will be strictly on shakes must reach this goal failure not an option

70 pounds in 3 months is awesome. Why so much pressure for February?

Na it was his suggestion if I wanted to meet my goal to hit that under 300 mark by the end of the month to do that and since I can't eat much anymore anyway shakes will be easy

      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.
