My scale is underneath my bed...but I went for my 6 weeks check up yesterday of course they weighed me! My scale reads 257.... theirs read 253....either way I'll take it! I rushed home to use my own scale so I now know its 4 lbs different that the Dr office scale. I'll be doing my usual Friday weigh in though :D

On surgery day, 4/17: 254 lb

4/23: 249 lb

4/29: 240 lb

Thanks so much for your kind words. Being sick now is setting me back on eating/drinking. My throat is so sore I can't even think of doing either. But I'm forcing the Protein shakes and fluids to try and stay hydrated and nourished. Hope this goes away soon!

I can't even imagine what it must be like I know that its hard enough for me to eat just because I'm not hungry let alone being sick! It's crazy in one aspect I love the feeling of being in control over my hungar and eating but than eating is more of a chore now lol. I hope you get to feelin' better :)

I started my liquid diet on march 26th at 405. Had my surgery on April 23rd at 382 and today my scale says 366. I have absolutely no problems or complications so far. I sometimes don't even feel like I had it done, well aside from the little incisions still on my belly lol. I haven't eaten to much or drank to much to have any discomfort. Feeling amazing. So far best decision I've made.

      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.
