Wow that is awesome that you have lost that much. Did you stick to the same foods or try and change it up? Also when did you start exercising?

I kept it simple with the foods during that stage. I didn't want to go crazy.

I was only doing a lot of walking. I just started exercising 2 weeks ago

I had my surgery at SoundShore Montefiore Hospital on October 5th. That hospital is in New Rochelle. The staff was wonderful the surgery was literally painless! I was so worried about being in pain but had absolutely no pain. The surgeon was Dr. Silberstein and he's wonderful! The only advise I can give is follow whatever the surgeon, nutritionist and staff tell you to do. If your not sure about something call and ask. Good luck!

Good Morning, I am in the begining of the 6- month pre op stage for a gastric Sleeve at Montefiore Hospital in the bronx. I am excited but at the same time a bit worried. I joined the forum to talk to others and ease fears and begin to form a support network. Would love to hear some tips and advice on the procedure.

      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.
