August Sleevers-How are you doing??



Recommended Posts

I love reading about everyone's success and its great to have a place to vent our struggles with those who understand.

What I find interesting is how different everyone's diet/meal plan restrictions are.

My Dr was pretty easy going and a 7 weeks I could eat anything I wanted, I've had no problems with salad, raw veggies or meat.

its interesting to read that other have been told to wait months before having steak, veggies etc.

Follow your plan and the weight will come off. Keep up the great work team August!

Well, I weighed in this morning and so far, I've lost another 0,8 kg. Yesterday, though, I went down to Denver to see a friend and before I left, she gave me a ziploc bag full of Cookies and a ziploc bag full of candy. Naturally, those things went into the trash once I got home.

Alright guys! Stats time! Put your surgery date, weight loss and starting weight up here for motivation.

My surgery was 8/23, I started at 335 and I'm down to 303! 32 pounds gone forever. emoji1430.png let me hear your stories!

My surgery was 8/21.

Original weight was 299. Surgery weight was 257. I'm down to 229 now so a total of 70 pounds lost. Getting rid of my biggest clothing because I won't need them again! I still have clothes of many sizes so I'm delaying buying more as long as I can. I'm very glad I did this.

      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.
