I'm 45lbs down and feel so much better! I started this process at 242 lbs. I lost 20 lbs during my preop diet and am down 25 lbs post op. I had a 3 to 4 week stall at 3 weeks which was so frustrating but eventually the weight started coming off again. I'm 5'8 and have finally made it to onderland!! Current weight 197. My NUT set my goal as 153 in 10 months. I don't think I've weighed that since elementary school! Can't wait to see what I'll look like! I'm sure enjoying the journey! I don't post often but often read others posts which have been so helpful! Thanks for the support!!

Thanks!!! Don't give up! I remember taking off from work one day, crying as I completed the doctors survey for the sleeve. I felt so helpless and disappointed in myself. I've struggled with my weight my entire life. Now I feel like I have control back! I wish you the best in your journey!

      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.
