Me too! First I was so looking into Premier Protein shake.. But they strongly recommend powder. Therefore, I'm going for Isopure. But I'm scared too. I have kids ????

Doing great! I go to my 3 month follow up on Tuesday. I am down 40 lbs. I started at 257 and down to 216. I got sleeved 10/21/16. How are you doing

Sent from my SM-G935P using the BariatricPal App

That's great! Can't wait to see at least 10 drop ????... But I am honestly nervous now. I've been watching "my 600 pound life" on TLC and it gets me anxious

Yes! I thought of changing it honestly... But I want to get it over and start my journey. The 2nd episode scared the hell out of me... When one of the twins almost died ????

I watched that one too! And it made me cry! But I think as long as your Dr knows you well enough everything should go good. I have a whole bunch of tests done because I have a lot of heart problems. Everything went quick with no problems at all. I healed great. I have been able to eat alright. I didn't use any pain meds at all or anything.

Wow! That's good. I cried as well... But I want to be like you were with very minimal pain. I have this huge fear of what can go wrong... I'm so glad you had no complications ????????

I have a stupid high pain tolerance. I had a c section almost 6 years ago and didn't have any pain meds with that either. I also read a lot of books before getting sleeved. So it helped calm my nerves a little bit

      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.
