Looking for June/July buddies



Recommended Posts

I hope so, and hopefully I will be able to stop taking the medication altogether once I start losing the weight.

I had my revision to sleeve July 9th. Feel great, just a little sore. Excited to see the number on the scale go down!

I was sleeved on June 8th. Doing very well but starting to hit an "emotional" stall. I have heard this is very common so not freaking out, but love to have buddies. Feel free to ask me any questions on the surgery, but understand, that everyone is different and will experience different things and pace according to healing, weight loss, and emotional healing. I have also seen many vast differences in how surgeons do things and what recommendations they give. I feel I was extremely educated before hand and have a very awesome NUT. I also have a sister who had an rny 13 years ago and has kept at her goal weight. Although we have differences we have more similarities so she has been my champion helping me through this process! Look forward to talking to you all more!

      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.
