I am down 42lbs! Just had my labs done and they look great as well. I just need to start adding excercise into the mix, feeling a bit weak.

Including the 10 day pre-op, I am down 57 pounds, 45 of that is since surgery. I sleeved on 2/2/2015. I had bloodwork for my 4/30/2015 and my numbers look great. Next visit is this Friday 6/26/2015.

I started as size 20/22 depending on the item and am down to size 16.

I need to get back to the gym. Vacation and business travel got me out of the habit. Although we did bike a couple of times and kayak on vacation.

I was sleeved on February 16. I started at 298 and this morning I weighed 208. The total since pre-op diet is 92 pounds! I feel great, am walking 10,000 steps and swimming laps in the pool. My clothing sizes dropped from a 26/28 and I just bought a pair of shorts in size 18.

Well, I have not lost as quickly. But, I have started running and can now run 4 miles three days a week and 2 miles the other days. Pound wise, 30 lbs. my surgery was 9 February 15. I have been stalled since 17 April. And, have actually, gained a couple of pounds. However, I am trying to be in encouraged. Great job everyone.

      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.
