well...had a very disappointing day...Even after doing all I was supposed to do losing my 10% and doing the classes I was told to take, I am no longer a "august sleever"! There was a class my program just added and it isn't offered until September so not only do I have to wait to take it it pushes me back until at least the middle of September. I know it is only another month but I cant help being disappointed that I have to wait another month. These last couple of months has gone so slow and I can't help being angry and annoyed at the delay

congratulations on losing your 10%!!!! That is such a good thing. And as disappointing on the extra wait is, how do you feel 10% lighter?

Hi guys. After reading a post on "the gastric sleeve surgery was the worst mistake I ever made" I am feeling quite unsettled. I have researched and read threads about possible complications, and I already was aware that things don't go well for everyone, but I am kind of having second thoughts a little....does anyone else feel the same?

Catherine, don't read the negative! Read the overwhelming number of positives! You will be fine. My surgery is 8/12 and I know it's the right choice for me. It will be for you too! As someone else said, "you can do this!"

I have my preop lab work and chest X-ray tomorrow plus the in office appointment so the NP can go over the pre op diet. It will be a long day. But I am so ready. I just want to feel better.

      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.
