Congratulations! Your story is a good reminder for those of us just a few months post surgery that any one week or one month may not be spectacular but the cumulative effect of all those weeks and months is spectacular! It teaches us that we can get through a stall and expect good loss after. I steady consistent effort will pay off. Thanks for sharing your journey.

Your success is so inspiring to me! I had the gastric sleeve on 1/7/14 and have had a successful beginning... My blood sugar has gotten in check, my blood pressure is running normal. The only problem I have had is that I am not having regular bowel movements.... If you have any suggestions on this please help!!! But back to you!!! You look great!!! I'm looking so forward to that type of success!

      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.
