I was sleeved on May 17th. Doing great by the way, no pain, no problems getting my Protein and liquids in, just missing being able to eat like I used to but I'm trying to put everything about this in it's proper perspective.

For instance the hunger issue. Before my surgery I read Dr. Duc. C. Vuong's Ultimtate Gastric Sleeve Success book food now and I am seeing now that real hunger is a good thing! It is a natural normal thing that I've had little experience with.

Since this seems to be one of the biggest issues with people trying to be successful with WLS I'm wondering what you guys think and what psychologically has helped you to be successful and what has hindered success mentally in your WLS journey's.

I just want to say congrats on your sleeve and I look forward to seeing how things go for you!

what I love about my sleeve is that hunger doesn't feel the same anymore. I feel an empty feeling and like I should eat something but it is no longer the big demanding monster that it used to be. and much more easily satisfied. I don't eat to get full - I eat just to feel not hungry anymore. it is liberating!

      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.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
