ARE THERE ANY OCTOBER/NOVEMBER 2015 SLEEVERS OUT THERE?



Recommended Posts

Hi all,

I've been away from this topic for a while--I finally got my approval and I am scheduled for November 30. I start my liquid diet on November 16. Does anyone else have this date?

Also, I was in a Facebook group that stemmed from this post, but I was removed. Does anyone know if that group was disbanded? It was really strange--it just disappeared. I love supporting others going through similar experiences, so here I am again.

Anyway, best of luck to the Oct/Nov sleevers!

Congrats! My surgery is Nov 17th, I do not have good Thanksgivings either! So I don't mind having surgery right before.

I'm 90% certain that my surgery date will be Nov. 25th! I think it's a fitting date seeing as it's the day before Thanksgiving. Partly because it's the day before millions of people will be gorging themselves on traditional dishes and partly because I have a history of having terrible Thanksgivings.

I was sleeved 10/5, I'm down just 40 lbs....definately on the slow side. Its better than nothing but hard to watch people on here that had surgery after me losing alot more. I eat less than 1000 calories a day and feel hungry alot. My nutritionist suggested I eat less to lose more weight but that doesn't seem realistic.

RDub, don't feel bad. I was sleeved 10/27 and I've only lost 20lbs. It's frustrating. Not sure what else I can do but go back to all fluids again. *sigh* I think this is the reason I don't come onto BP anymore. I guess this surgery isn't always successful for everyone. I'm proof.

      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.
