OMG, that is so awesome!!! I hope that I continue to lose like I am. I lost 11 pounds so far since my surgery a week ago. I really did not expect to lose so fast, but my chunky butt is definitely not complaining.

Congratulations!

Hi Amy,

i started at 170 lbs, goal is 130.

how do you feel?

i have discomfort on the left side, sounds like everyone does.

cream Soups fill me up also.

feel a little fatigued, was told that could be a sympton of dehydration.

So do you know how they add the weight ticker to the messages?

Regards,

Stephanie

I am down 19lbs but my right side hurts not my left. My port is on my right so that may explain it. I am having soft foods now and it has been a little difficult this weekend since my son just got married last night and we had food galore! I won't be able to see my surgeon until Sept. 20th because I have to go out of town for work:faint:so I hope he give me a fill then. It will be tough to try to find something to eat out while I am gone.

Does anyone know when I will be able to swim? I will be 2 weeks out Monday!

      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.
