Just wanted to start a thread for the guys. I am looking forward to seeing how many there are out there. I was sleeved on July 26th 2014. Down 48lbs since July 16th pre-op and 32lbs since surgery date. So far so great!

Glad to hear you are doing well! I lost 42 pounds before surgery on 12/23/13. I am now down a total of 132 pounds and have hit my initial goal weight. I am continuing the program as I feel there is more to loose. It has been an amazing seven months since surgery. Good Luck!

Thanks macman and congrats on the 132!

Stalls are coming for me. I know it. Right now its so new to me I find myself weighing everyday. I probably shouldn't do this because when I stall I may be disappointed a bit.

Good luck with your surgery brother!

Sounds like you're doing great rjumper.

I was sleeved in dec 2013 and down 135 pounds with 4 pounds left to reach my goal. Not sure if I will try to lose a little more as people are calling me boney at this point but my "love handles" are still bigger than I'd like.

Congrats on your success and keep up the good work !

      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.
