Yup, that's one of the things I'm worried about. It's great that you're able to control it!

Thank you! What made it hard for me is that my daughter, who lives with us, is such a good cook & that my family can eat solid food in my presents! But im determine to not let that deter me from doing whats right!
Im sure you'll do much better than me!

Just arrived at the hospital. I'm tired, hungry, thirsty and two hours away from surgery.

Here's success from my 8/21/17 sleeved date: I'm 23lbs lighter now! Last night we went to a birthday party and I actually had to change because my shirt was too big! I can comfortably wear a pair of my old jeans.

How are the sleevers doing that have been ok'd to move onto soft/puree foods? i having a hard time with it as most of the foods that my doctor gave me i dont eat, like fish im allergic too and some of the other stuff like chicken salad is just blah im still just eating my high Protein low sugar yogurts, egg beaters, sugar free Jello, sugar free pops and Water ice and low fat string cheese and getting my protein i drink my Unjury chicken protein broth. i have cravings and my stomach does tell me when im full which is pretty quick and some soft foods i cannot eat because it hurts me. the Protein Shakes i cannot stomach still so i dont even bother. I'm also still stuck at 218 and have been for almost 2 weeks, still having good and bad days.

tips? recipes?

Compared to this morning after I woke up from surgery, I'm feeling much better.

The pain has subsided for the most part and I have thrown up thrice. But never let it be said that I don't have character. I sung the first verse of the Marseillaise while being wheeled in to the OR.

How are you doing? I had mine on Monday, got home today. I've had virtually no pain and no trouble at all getting liquids down, although I'm trying to take that slowly. Have some minor gas, not too bad yet. Curious to see how I'll sleep tonight.

I am scheduled for gastric sleeve surgery on Monday, 8/28. I'm nervous - not about the surgery itself, but about what happens after. I'm also having these irrational (?) fears that the surgery work for me - that I'll be ravenously hungry, that my metabolism won't let me lose weight. But, another part of me is optimistic that I'll lose weight and keep it off. Yikes! I'm nervous.

I'm still a sore at the biggest incision site but other than that I feel fine. I think after that soreness subsides everything will be great. How are you feeling?

      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.
