I haven't worked out much. I'm making an effort to this year though, as I'm having loose skin issues. I'm wearing my Shapewear in that pic! I don't leave home w/o it on.

For those who are newly sleeved, just keep your eyes on the prize and don't allow yourself to slip, as it is very easy to. At 10.5 months out my hunger is back and my sleeve isn't as tight as when I started out (which is all to be expected according to my doc.) So now it's up to me to keep the weight off the rest of my life :). Good luck to everyone and please message me with any questions!

@@Countrygrrl, that's great!!! So far, so good!! I'm down 21 lbs as of today, since sleeve, 30 since pre-op diet! How about you?! My 22 skinny jeans were falling off me the other day! They hadn't fit for about 6 months!!! Isn't it an awesome feeling!? That was the biggest size I ever bought. After I grew out of them, I didn't bother buying pants anymore.

For those only a few weeks out I just want t o show you what 4 weeks can do to your face. And my knee high boots are loose when I used to struggle to zip them. The weight starts falling off in strange places! I started my journey on Dec 4th at 334lb and now at 6 1/2 weeks out am down 46lb and feeling fabulous! I don't see a difference in picks of my body but I know it's changing. Keep motivated!!!

      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.
