11 Weeks Post-Op & 60lbs Down!



Recommended Posts

Hey everybody! I'm so happy to share with you all that I am officially 11weeks post-op today, and at today's weekly weigh in, I weighed 188!!! That's 60 lbs down from my highest weight!!!! My height is 5' 6.5"; I started this process at 248, lost 20 pre-op, and 40 post-op. Thus far I have had no problems with any type of food. I eat healthy 95% of the time; I stay away from my trigger foods because I WILL eat them if they are near and accessible; I stay away from bad carbs except on my cheat days (Sunday's), and when I say cheat it is very minimal and only at 1 meal--not every meal. I also exercise with a minimum of 4 days of cardio (1/2 hour to an hour depending on my schedule), 2 days weights.

Whoop! Whoop! Loving my sleeve!

      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.
