I was sleeves by Dr Illan a week ago and I'm feeling great! I'm getting in enough Fluid and Protein, still have a little gas at times and a touch of soreness but overall am so happy with how everything is going!

Congratulations! It sounds like things are going very well for you. I'm one week and 2 days post surgery. I had a hard time getting the fluids and the Protein in. Then it seemed like at the one week mark, it magically became possible and I've done well the past two days. I think I probably still had a lot of swelling making it harder.

Have you gotten on the scale? How are the numbers going for you? I have always been someone who weighs myself daily, no matter how big or small I've been. I think it's so cool to get on the scale and see the numbers going down every day now!

Keep up the good work!

      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.
