Wow. You're only a week ahead of me (July 16th) and I've only lost 18 lbs. I knew I'd lose slower cuz I started at 174 (band revision) but this is embarrassing. I know I could speed things along by watching everything I put in my mouth and only making healthy choice, but I'm happy eating small amt of ANYTHING I want and losing slowly.

But reading your post inspires me to maybe start losing again? I havent lost a lb in about a month. Haven't gained either (and we're away from home right now, MIL is having health problems so we're at the inlaws taking care of her out of state. Not the healthiest eating when ur away from home)

WTG!!! Keep it up!

You are doing a really great job. I am a Medical Assistant to a bariatric surgeron so I see sucess stories 5 days a week. I recently had the sleeve on 07/30/13 (by the surgeon I have worked beside for 2 years now) so I am 2 months out today! Keep up the great work you should be at your goal in no time! Best of luck to you!

Thank you ! Best of luck to you as well :)

It is so hard ! I notice even when I go home out of state it is difficult to stay on track but I always pack my Protein shakes. I had/have a lot of weight to lose so it's coming off quicker with the help of exercising frequently . Keep trying ! You can do it :) I hope your mil gets better soon , it's so hard to lose with added stress !

      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.
