I have been told twice recently that I am so skinny. I love this. My dream come true. Who knew that I would cause such issues even among my slim friends who only want the best for me.

I love what my sleeve did for me!!!!!!!!! And I love that it is still helping me stay this way!!!!! modern medical science.....I tip my hat to you in this area. :)

I love my sleeve too! So many people that I used to work with/go to school with dont recognize me anymore! And when I show pictures of myself at 400lbs last year people don't believe that I was ever that big! It feels amazing know that the sleeve has changed my life for the better! :)

I'm just 2 months and a half post-op and cannot be called 'thin' yet but I love my sleeve too!! Now I can run to catch a bus, I can dance FOR THE WHOLE HOUR!! I love the sporty looks with sneakers as much as I love the elegant looks on high heels, no more double chin, no more 3 medications daily!!!!

I LOVE 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.
