Hello all my name is Jennifer I'm from connecticut I was sleeved on December 17,2014 one week before Xmas and I'll never do it again before a major holiday start of process was November 2013 I weighed 459 started nutrition classes Feb of 2014 and had surgery that Dec it's been real hard to say the least today I weigh 320 I've dropped 2 pant sizes 1 shoe size and 4 shirt sizes my Boobs were a 54 Dd DOWN to a 48D the hardest part of surgery afterwards was all the gas floating around that hurt bad so it forced me to walk so I'd burp or pass gas to get it out. .. I spent 3dys in hospital it was filled with warm welcoming nurses kind supportive drs and staff that came in 3 to 4 times a day and motivated me to get up and do some laps around the hall. .. honestly after surgery I wasn't even hungry at ALL they gave me Water and glucerna JUST for hospital stay not for home and no lie it was 2 Oz at a time I started off with a medicine measures full I'd have to get it down in an hr ... I'll write more tomorrow I'm Fallin asleep. ..

      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.
