Four Months Update!



Recommended Posts

Hey Sleeve Family,

Thought it was time I give an update. Today marks my 4th month Surgiversary! I'm down 55 pounds! Feeling good! Much lighter feeling on my feet! Had a bad episode of acid reflux, doctor finally prescribed Nexium for it!

I feel that I can really do this! I can really get down another 50+ pounds! The sleeve has empowered me! I no longer feel imprisoned by excess weight! I actually like what I see in the mirror now! The first few weeks were challenging!

Nothing tasted right! I was very emotional at times! But I knew I made the right decision, cause my weight was falling off!

I need to exercise more now...just been walking, but that's not moving these hips I got...lol

Be encouraged everyone! We are in it to WIN IT~!

      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.
