Hi everyone I was sleeved Thursday May 1. I'm almost 7 days out. So far so good. I'm glad I can be a resource for the "newbies". It's a daunting process but I'm so so happy at 13 pounds lighter! I'm feeling strong and confident. My advice - follow your plan, eat slow and don't get hung up on the numbers - we will all get there!

Way to go Tebowfan! I am so glad to hear your surgery went well. And better than you expected, that is great. I pray it will go that good for me too. Hopefully you are getting home and getting some much needed rest now. Keep us updated on your recovery!

My surgery is tomorrow, and I have a calm feeling over me

You will be fine. Had bypass last Wednesday and it really hasn't been bad. Praying for you and quick recovery!

      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.
