I had surgery 9/2/14, just started on second stage of soft foods. I really have to remember to eat slow, if you don't it can sure make you feel sick, but I'm in the learning stages, and making new habit stage :). I'm down about 26 pounds that includes losing 6 pounds before surgery. Hope all the other sept sleevers are doing good.

Hi. my name is Heather. I am 32 years old. almost 33 March 5th. I have a wonderful husband and 3 amazing daughters which is the reason i mostly made the decision to have the surgery to help me lose weIght. i want to get healthy so i can live a long healthy life.I was sleeved September 17th 2014. I was 230 pounds at my heaviest weight. I was 206 pounds the day of my surgery. I am 17 weeks,4 days post op now 1/18/15 and 160 pounds and my goal weight is 120 pounds. i'm still on phase 3 so i'm just on soft foods. i struggle to get my Vitamins, Protein and fluids in everyday because it is hard for me to eat or drink too much at a time. just really need the support of others going through the same thing as i am

      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.
