I just got my approval for March 10th!!! I started this whole process in July and I'm so glad that I am just a few weeks away from surgery. I'm very ready to get my new life started :)

My surgery was March 11th too! I go to see my doctor today! :) wish me luck. I am just about 30 lbs down so far. Has everyone moved on to pureed foods? If so, how is that going?

I'm a March 11 also! I've been approved to move on to pureed foods as of last Tuesday but I've found other than the random few bites of applesauce or yogurt I'm not in a hurry to eat 'real' food again because I no longer like the full feeling in my stomach after a month of liquids. Anyone else experiencing this?

I'm down 46 lbs so far, have energy and starting exercise up again tomorrow so I know I'll need to eat more pureed to keep my energy up.

<p>i was march 10th too. how's everybody feeling?</p>

I was sleeved march 11th and have lost 32 lbs, however the past 8 days I have not lost anything and actually gained 5oz. Has anyone else experienced this at 8 weeks? I went to the nutritionist at 6 weeks and she reviewed my myfitnesspal food habits and said I was right on track, so I'm confused why I started stalling! It's so disheartening ! Any help?

      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.
