I'm in a WhatsApp group with 3 other sleevers. 2 of them had it done a month ago with me and the other 3 months ago. The group is great , we send each other pics of what we eat , ideas etc and just encourage each other. If any of you want to join us let me know privately
The more the merrier! Xx

I'm doing very well. I am 54 kg down with only 17 to go. Living in the gym they said the last bit would be the hardest. And was able to complete my first 5k last August.

Would recommend Mr.mannur and the spire group to any one x

Hot Water was a blessing for gas for me. And you will used to everything so quickly. Just listen to your body. And increase your activity as soon as possible. Xx

      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.
