I only eat Protein, and some streamed veggies-but not very often. But that's my protocol from my surgeon.

Do any of u guys have the medical alert Bracelet? I've been thinking more and more about it after my surgeons nurse told me it would be a good idea. She said we really needed to make sure emergent personnel didn't try to do a blind ng tube I'm case of an emergency as it could cause internal bleeding and damage the spleen. I'm back & forth about it. I know at kinda a good idea and then I have the idea of having to feel like I'm advertising. Thoughts???

I've been looking at some pretty ones and I'm surprised how fat they have come from the big bulky ugly types I remember. I am gonna get on as well I think.

Had my 3 month follow up today! Super positive! CW is 242.6. Loss since surgery that is 54 lbs. waist is down 10 inches! And BMI is down as well! Looking at the numbers I am totally shocked and excited! My doctor says I am exactly where I need to be in weight loss! They want patients 3 months out to be 25-30% down to their goal and I am killing it! I love my weight management doctor! He is so sweet and positive!

Thanks for letting me share!

I dont eithdr and I was a huge chocolate lover. Now sometimes a yogurt is too sweet. I love it.

I'm loving it too! My kids are like why aren't you eating chocolate anymore. I use to eat it all the time. Several times a day. This is great

Had to share...after years of bring told "You have such a pretty face" I was told this afternoon.."You are beautiful Alaina" totally at random by 2 people who recently saw me. Totally brings me to tears telling this. All of this journey once again felt worth it. I'm sorry I'm such a sap but this touched me deeply in so many parts where all that self hate is being peeled away.

That is amazing. Made my day to read this:)

      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.
