Hey yall. Happy 3 month surgiversary! My HW 224, surgery at 204, and now I'm at 173. I'm 33lbs from my goal weight! My losses have never been overly fast because I started with a lower BMI. I average about 2-3lbs per week. So I'm okay with that. :) how are yall doing?

My rating if a lot different than the first month. For the first two weeks I was on Clear Liquids and the two weeks following I was on full liquids. I haven't really found anything this my new stomach can't handle. I had to start adding vegetables and greens in sooner than expected because my gallbladder did not like all the Proteins in my system. Congratulations on your weight loss! This is the best thing I have ever done for myself.

For the first I think 6 weeks I was omg the worst I was getting acid reflux throwing up I couldn't eat not even a boiled egg and still I find bread even if it's wheat or grain bread I find it so heavy. I eat half of a steak and I'm stuffed I love this and I'm excited that that my 19 year old daughter got approved and what surgery date is the 31 of May next week ! I can eat about anything but I'm paying attention to my stomach and still drinking my Protein shake in the morning only. But other then that I feel good

Hello All,

Hope everyone is well. I'm doing OK....down about 46 lbs. I am very grateful to be thinner, and to finally have clothes to wear. However, I feel like I can eat WAY too much, and I am hungry all the time (for being this early out). I had concerns that my surgeon left my stomach too big from the start, and I'm struggling to keep my calories down. This wasn't something I expected. I guess I am one of the ones that never gets the break from constant hunger, and I kind of feel like it's back to the dieting days. The good news is, at least I'm not gaining weight and I have lost. I just fear what it will be like in 8 months, if it's this hard now.

How are you all doing? How is the weight loss and food (calories going?

      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.
