My BFF and an ex-boyfriend both got sleeved about a year and a half ago. She's lost 20 ish pounds and probably had 80 to go....he initially lost around 50 but it's creeping back, he's got at least 125-160 to lose....so the only 2 sleeved people I know haven't done well...she's a soda addict, he never exercises...there are reasons they haven't done well,but yeah, no sleeve for me!!!!

HW 312, pre-op (lap-band) 294, pre-op (RNY) 255, surgery date 2/11/13, goal weight 154, current weight 225

I wanted the Rny but I am not and was not a sweets fan so dumping is no big thing for me. I workout and eat right But need the RNY for metabolic reset.

Joy don't every be embarrassed! I know I went hog wild before my surgery. We obviously have an unhealthy relationship with food or we would not be in this position.

Proud of you!! You will be on the losing bench soon. Xoxo. Serena

      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.
