One can of vegetarian retried Beans split between 5 1/2 cup bowls with a sprinkle of cheese on top. Just ready to be popped into the microwave for a minute or so for a meal.

I actually ate one bowl for dinner and a bowl the same size of cottage cheese for lunch. I drank one and a half Protein Shakes today and have not had any Water because I didn’t get up until after 12:00 today and after my shower I had to have my coffee. Then I had to wait 30 minutes before I could eat, and after I ate I had to wait another 30 minutes before I could drink the Protein shakes.

Ladies and gentlemen I don't know if you guys have heard of something called skinny syrups its a no calorie and no sugar liquid flavoring I just added a drop to my Protein Shake (which it says you can add to coffee oatmeal lattes yogurts etc.) And it made a big difference in taste the shake wasn't as charky way more tolerable. Mind you my surgery for the sleeve is in 2 weeks hopefully it will still taste great afterwards. They come in different flavors as well I saw pumpkin spice, vanilla, and mocha flavors from TJMAXX.

Hi KBridge,

I’m well. Traveled last week for work and it was tiring! I had my first bite of real food last night and that tiny amount of chicken salad might have been the best thing ever. Super frustrated that the scale didn’t move the whole week I was gone though. Ugh! Like how is that possible. I’m hoping I was swollen from flying.

Still some pain on left side but so much better. How are you?

I'm doing okay. Still extremely fatigued though and having trouble getting enough Water or food but getting better everyday. I also still have pain on the left side and the incision right above my belly button.

scale is moving but I still can't see it yet...apparently everybody else can.

our bodies are peculiar machines...I have no doubt that you will get back to losing again. Stay in touch! ;)

      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.
