Potpieiii-if you are like more I had some pretty tight clothes, especially jeans so I'm still not seeing too much difference after 26 pounds. It will come! I am now seeing a difference in my underwear lol

I'm doing great, no trouble with getting in my Protein and my fluids. I'm using Premier Protein chocolate. I usually pour it in my shaker bottle, add 4-6 oz of Water and a scoop of Protein Powder so it then has 55 grams of Protein and I drink half in the morning, half in the afternoon.

My nurse advanced me to puréed on Thursday and now I feel like I'm starving all the time. I didn't have hunger before on liquids.

Have you done any measurements with a tape? It's the strangest thing…my hips are down 1 inch, bust is the same, but my waist is down 3 inches. So no real difference in clothes despite 20 lbs lost.

Surgery date 10/21/13

Before weight : 266

Current weight : 252

Been at 252 since a week out but also that time of month is here is that makes a difference. Haven't had many issues since surgery able to eat well sometimes I get concerned that I can eat too well if that makes sense. Excited for the new me! Still taking pain meds at least once a day would like to quit taking but they help me through the day so I am not so uncomfortable and able to do housework .

      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.
