Hi: I had my surgery (sleeve) on January 12th of this year. I am doing fabulous. I have lost 65 pounds so far and I have had zero issues. I'm exercising 5-6 times per week and I am about 20 pounds from my goal weight. Life is good.

I had surgery on December 29, so I think that counts as January. I am doing great and love my sleeve!! I have lost 80lbs and I am down from a size 22/24 to a 14. I am still consistently losing. I have not had any complications and no dumping. I still follow the rules. I have not introduced carbs, sugar or alcohol. I feel great!!!

Hi everyone had my surgery on January 23rd down 73 lbs, I'm so happy!! Best decision I ever made! Had my thyroid removed three years ago my and weight spiraled out of control, with in two years I had gained 130lbs and nothing I did helped me loose weight. Since my sleeve the weight is falling off I follow all the rules and work out six days a week. For the first time in my life I look forward to weigh in day lol! Starting to feel like the old me again!! I wish all my fellow January sleevers continued success and happiness!!

      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.
