I hear ya! 32 lbs down here and i long for the day my body image issues will go way. This is more a mental journey than a physical journey.

Hey my sister sleever, how are you doing with this journey?

Well it's slow going..... I'm down 37 lbs and that includes my preop diet. 28 since surgery and 37 all together.... Jeeze sounds pathetic when I look at it that way....

I had my VSG on May 6, 2014, and as of today I am down 60 lbs. I am very happy. I feel such a difference already. My back does not hurt anymore when I do simple household chores. I am not out of breath when I walk up a flight of steps. I have been more active and don't need a nap every afternoon. I am living life and loving it! I still have a ways to go, but so far the results have thrilled me. I also don't need my CPAP at night anymore. I am running out of clothes to wear, but that's ok because I will make do until I go on a little shopping spree when I lose a little more. Good luck to all of you going through this major life-changing journey. I do not regret it for one minute and would do it again in a heartbeat!

      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.
