Hi everyone wanted to post my one week post-op weigh-in.

SW was 182lbs. Today I was 166lbs.

Goal weight is 120lbs and I can't wait to get there. It feels really good to see the scale go down for once.

How are you feeling

Sent from my SM-G925P using BariatricPal mobile app




I'm feeling good, not on pain meds anymore. hair is falling though but was given a Syrup three times a day, three times a week.

I get really tired sometimes and just fall off to sleep for a few hours without meds. Not sure what's that about considering it never happened before.

Has the nausea stopped? I was just sleeved yesterday and the nausea started today. If that stops, I'll be ok

Have you checked your thyroid levels? I have a chronic thyroid illness so I know mine could also be attributed to that plus the surgery.

One of the reasons you are tired is that you are consuming many fewer calories than your body is used to. It does get better


Ahh that makes more sense [emoji4]

      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.
