Hello there Lovely Ladies and Gents !

Just checking in with the August Sleevers, it's been 5 WHOLE MONTHS?! Can you believe this, time has pretty much flown by! I wanted to know how everyone is managing and encouraging everyone to share their experiences. REMEMBER* No judgement and to each their own, we should all know as adults something you see work for someone else might not work for you and VICE VERSA ! I'm excited to hear of everyones stories :D

It will 5 months for me on the 14th. Time has definetly flown by. And I feel like our 1 year post op posts won't be too far either. It's been an amazing journey so far. Had moments of regret, anxiety, oh shi! moments, yesss moments so many moments. I just recently broke a stall I was in for 3 weeks ughh. I lost 6 lbs in 4 days. All it took was strep throat :/.... which really sucked and wasn't enjoyable at ALL. but it's crazy how the body works. I've lost 60.2 pounds since my 1 week preop diet. I was 294 and today I weighed in at 234 yaaaas.

4 months, 2 weeks out - and I'm convinced getting my sleeve is the best thing I've ever done in my life.

I love my sleeve.

Still a long way to go but I know I'll get to my goal.

To date - 48.2 kg / 106 lbs gone for ever.

I have a follow up appointment with my Doctor in 2 weeks and I'd love to be down another 2 kg by then.

Take care August sleevers :)

      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.
