First I'd like to say hello all my beautiful sleevers! Congrats on your victories small and large! This past year has been one of the most challenging years I've ever experienced. Add to that a life altering surgery (sleeve) and u have a powerful combination. It's had it's up and downs but thankfully my weight has been the major DOWN! I'm 10 pounds from goal and yes I've been a slow loser but slow and steady wins the race!!! I'm beyond thrilled my results and my confidence is higher than it's ever been! Yet I remain humbled by all my life experiences. I've been so inspired by so many of you and you have been my accountability partners in all that! For that I thank you dearly and sincerely! Stay focused and keep your eye on the prize! Love every piece of you flaws and all! Xoxo.

Congrats to you on taking a brave life saving step! You will do amazingly. First two days were hell. After that it's a breeze. At least for me it was. Incisions were painless I didn't have stitches just surgical glue.

      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.
