To answer some questions I have read

My hair fell out a lot' date=' it finally stopped which means I am coming to the end of my weight loss. I started at 250 now i am 128 lbs

No secrets, my surgeon made me sleeve super

Tiny so eating is kind of an issue.

Thank you all so Much!! To answer a couple of more questions I have seen, My surgeon was Dr. Marina Kurian At NYU Hospital in Manhattan NYC. Like I said previously my skin bounced back pretty well! I am having a breast lift in November though. Going from a size F to a size C Has done some damage! My stomach does sag slightly as well. To all of the recent post oppers The journey is tough at first but you get used to it! It took me six months to really get the hang of having a sleeve. And as I said earlier this sleeve she gave me is tiny meaning I really can't eat a lot i eat a lot less than other sleevers that i know. My doctor told me she always makes a small sleeve to really get the full effect. To be honest I am hoping it will stretch in time!! Thank you all again for the support I really appreciate it!!

      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.
