ONE YEAR ANNIVERSARY TODAY 5.5.15



Recommended Posts

Where are my fellow "Cinco de Mayo" sleevers from 2014?? I hope you're all doing good. I'm great, not at goal, but happy where I am. I feel great, healthy and beautiful. I constantly get compliments -- every day, not a day goes by that I don't -- and honestly, it feels so strange as my body and my mind are not made a connection yet but I take it all in and even though I honestly don't see the drastic change people talk about, I am a happier person when I wake up in the mornings, feeling not as tired as I used to and my reflection in the mirror and in my heart are those of a happier, more peaceful person. I thank you here who were so nice when I asked for advise right out of surgery and then afterwards and God and of course, my amazing golden surgeon! Love and peace to all reading this.... and those of you that are scared of taking this leap of faith, I say DO IT, go with a great surgeon and dare to change your life for the better, for the healthier.... Good Luck and God Bless! ♥

      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.
