Good evening everyone!

Merry Christmas to one and all.

My HW-252

SW-246

Date of Surgery- 2-12-14 weighed in at 232

CW-133

I am 5'3.5

I used to wear between a 26-28

I now wear a size 4 and at 49 years old I'll take it!

This journey has been no less than amazing. I was given a tool to use and I've been doing exactly what they've told me to do. I have ditched all my diabetes meds-4 insulin shots a day, metformin, byetta, glipizide, levoxyl, lisinopril, and aspirin, My blood pressure is running at 100/70 most days. My last HbA1c was just the first month off all meds back in July and it was 5.9. Next one will be at the end of January. Can't wait to see where that is.

My life with the sleeve has been great-I'd do it again in a heartbeat. I won't lie and say it's been easy. It hasn't. But it's been about making the right choices and sticking to it.

Have a Happy New Year!

      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.
