K8tee isn't it scaring because you do have the sleeve and there is not way to tighten it back up?

Everyone else thank you so much. I have a smile from ear to ear.

I've had a band that didn't work and then the sleeve. It's like my body loves the weight. Me, in the other hand hates it. Is there any advice guys? The number is important from a diabetes perspective so I need to keep trying. ????

Is there any way to shrink it? Only eat and drink liquids for a week and see what happens.

There is a Protein diet which supposedly shrinks it which ideally isn't what I want to do as idiot think it's sustainable. I'm on 1200 calories a day having 3 Protein Shake plus 100g of meat and a cup of fresh veg every night. It stabilizes me but doesn't reduce the weight.

      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.
