Sole 2007 Sleever?

It appears that I am alone in here! I thought about this website because I have gained a few pounds but not too much. I need to lose 15 or so pounds and am starting today... I realize I am talking to myself! Luckily I have the tools to do it I have honestly never had to try until now... that in itself is an accomplishment. No dieting, no exercising, I know...lame!

I have been searching for people who have been sleeved over 5 years!! There's isn't any data on success rate or complications down the road. Have you had any problems? Can you still only eat very small amounts? How is your overall health?

Sorry for all the questions but I am in the pre approval process to get sleeved and the long term data is something I really wanted to see to ease my concern with this life changing .... Irreversible surgery...

      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.
