CONGRATS Erica....

Your doing so well. I am alittle over 1.5 yrs and have reached my goal....Sometimes I am lower than my goal but with so many bones showing :) I try now to keep my weight at the 130-135 range...I go down to 125 occasionally. I am 5'4.5" and actually love being that thin!!

Keep up the good job!

Happy and Healthy NEW YEAR!

I'm new to the sleeve. I'm going on 4 weeks and can't seem to get past the puréed stage. Something's still hurt to swallow. Do you exercise at all or just consume Protein?

Yes Unfortunately I do have loose skin. I have lost so much so fast that it made my arms belly and thighs s little "flabby". I'm looking into some cosmetic surgeries in te future when I hit my goal. Also for the puréed stage

I remember it being very difficult and uncomfortable for me for just a little over a month. Your almost over

That hump once you get past yor montj everything will slowly get easier. The pain will go away and things will be much easier to swallow and digest. Thanks again for the encouraging words!!! Please leave

Your success stories or anytning. I love to read aboit everyone's adventure.

You look amazing! How did you pick the sleeve? I am thinking about either the gastric sleeve or gastric bypass.

      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.
