Hi 13th (or near as damn it) sleevers.

How is everyone doing?

Nearly 10 weeks out I'm loving life. Lost 60lbs, now eating normal food, still rial and error on portion on different foods. all old clothes gone, can fasten an airline seatbelt and I am mentally fit.

Been for my surgeon check up and all good, I'm now off all Meds bar my Multivitamin and my 3 monthly B12 injection. Will start to ramp up the exercise now

I'm still surprised how the UK and US differ in opinion on post op Protein liquids. Other than week one I did not have any.

So all gone to plan and loving the decision that I made. Friend and family have been mega supportive.

Below is my pre op and post 9 week shot.

@@olliesoda wow you look amazing! I am so happy to hear how well you are doing , 60 lbs lost is awesome. I have only lost 37 but I feel really good. I guess I am a slow loser but my knees and my feet appreciate some of the extra weight being gone. ????

I look forward to seeing more pictures of your progress! This journey is so exciting

      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.
