So in the beginning i was doubting and regretting that i had the sleeve surgery ! i hated life and i just wanted the pain and agony to go away. today was my 10 day post op visit, i had my surgery on 10/27 ( over 10 days by a little) and i can say now that i'm happy that i made the choice in life to better myself ! not only for myself, but for my child's sake. i don't want him to go through life without a parent because i chose food over him. my father passed away when i was 11 to a massive heartache due to be extremely over weight. so i know the struggles.

i left the office today with such a smile on my face ! i did something that my family thought i would fail at ! i lost a total of 40 pounds !

start weight. 467

surgery day weight 455

weight today 425!!!!

my goal is in my horizon now. i'm ready for what my future brings !

      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.
