Every month surgiversary I make a post, but this month 2 days late. I have been stalled for about a month at 172 lbs and it is driving me crazy. I know we need them, everyone gets them and they are part of the process, but it stinks. I was so used to seeing the scale move pretty consistently, that now even though it is hard to watch it stand still, I still have to weigh each and everyday. Other then that I feel pretty good, and very grateful for the sleeve. I have had some people call me skinny, and I will never get enough of that, even though I would still like to lose another 30lbs. So close to the 100lb mark. Hope everyone is doing well, good luck to those who are about to join us. It has been great reading posts on this site and very helpful

Our stats are quite similar and I know just how you feel! I'm hoping to reach a loss of 100 lbs too. Let's just keep on and surely the scales will go down!

      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.
