I started walking on day 3. I was motivated by having insane gas pains. It really helped and during my post op follow up my surgeon said it has really helped with my healing!

GG123, I'm in the same boat. Mine was on the 12th and I've inly lost a few pounds. I feel different in my clothes, but nothing really showing on the scale yet. It's discouraging. Let me know what your doctor says about it if you ask. I've read it's normal because of all the fluids and gas they pump you with, but then I don't know why so many other people are dropping so much weight

May 6 sleeve here and I've lost 11 pounds. I feel like I am a very slow loser even though I'm sticking meticulously to the eating plan. I've noticed 2 days ago that I've been really hungry. I've been able to fight it but am disappointed I am already hungry

Sleeved May 10th

Original w 264

Surgery w 245

Current w 234 but I've been the same now for 3 days. Don't think I'm getting enough Protein. And my surgeon is super strict. I'm on full liquid for 2 weeks, (1st week was clear only) no Jello. At week 4 I can do soft foods. Not hungry but the head hunger struggle is real.

Thank you KirstenLe. I m not even hungry that's why I can't probably tell when I m full. When it comes to solids it will be measured, no doubts in that.

Well I feel really crappy after reading these posts lol. I was sleeved May 11 and have lost only 6 stinking pounds. We have higher Protein goals than most it seems: 80 gm per day and 64 oz Water. I haven't cheated at all guess I should get on the elliptical and try and burn calories,.

      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.
