Same thing happens with me on the scale.. it is annoying! on my eating I'm trying to eat anything I want but honestly I cant once the food hits my tummy I'm in pain. Protein Shakes are grossing me out and cant eat them anymore but still getting them in there.

Hello ladies! I was sleeved on 8/22. I'm 6 weeks post op down 30 pounds... I'm am what u call a slow but steady looser. I'm very happy about it cuz it gives my body time to adjust... One thing I can tell you is that if you don't give ur body the proper nutrients like your Protein Shakes and your Vitamins, ur not going to loos any fat, what you will start to loos is lean muscle which will make your skin sag... You will be weak and your body will ache.... Plus is you don't take your Protein you are doubling your chances of loosing your HAIR.... Now saggy and bold is not a good combination... We are young!!!I encourage you, if you took the big step to health and got sleeved, take full advantage of the opportunity that others wish they could have.... Don't just eat anything. The sleeve is a tool, not a bypass. Eat and drink your Protein it's VITAL for your body.... I hope you find this helpful..... God Bless!!! :*

      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.
