I tried not getting on the scale but I go crazy. I am on it every day. I need to know. Even if it is only o.1 pounds. It's something in the right direction ☺

I try to stay below 1,000 calories. I write down and track everything or else I am inclined to go over. Seems like a lot of you aren't hungry but that hasn't really been my experience. I feel like I am always hungry!

Surgery was October 5. Am now 40 lbs down since beginning pre-surgery liquid diet, 55 since my highest weight. :)

SHAKTI. We are almost weight loss twins! We are the same height and had pretty much the same starting weight.

Hi Marcia! yes we do have a lot of similar stats but wow - you lost so much even before the surgery!

I've followed your story. I also had a delay I originally was supposed to get sleeved in late August. A few days before I knew I was feeling lousy, but hoped that this would not be an issue. So on the appointed day I checked into the hospital and was getting prepped for surgery. The anesthesiologist came in, checked me over, saw that I had a fever and a red throat and sent me home.

It was very hard -everything in the previous 4 months had led up to that first surgery day, and now it wasn't happening. I felt so let down, and I didn't know how to summon up the courage and energy to go through it again - but I did reschedule, I did another 2 week liquid diet, and here I am. So I'm glad you stuck with it!

Am now close to 240 lbs People notice but they're not sure what the difference is. I have big curly hair, so most people ask me if I cut, colored, or changed my hair!

      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.
