I got sleeved June 6th 2016. On surgery day I weighed in at 345 pounds! Today July 21st 2016 I currently weigh 288! So that's 57 pounds in 6 weeks! Not bad My surgeon was very surprised and happy with my results. But I told him I do 4 miles of cardio everyday! The surgery is great, but it's what you do after that really makes the difference! I hope you all are having a great weight loss journey! And for those in the process of getting it, I hope this gave you some motivation!

Congratulations on your weight loss! Keep up to good work. I had a low BMI when I went in 6 weeks ago and had much less to lose. I started at 176 and I'm down to 155.4. I'm pleased with my progress and I'm no longer diabetic!!!

      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.
