I started this journey back on January 8th when I had my first surgeon appointment. I weighed 360. Today at 11 days post op I weigh 332. I know a lot is Water weight, but it's still exciting to see the loss happening.

You are doing great. Also don't down play your hard work by saying you still weigh alot. Remember always look at what you have accomplished so far. The fact that it's just 11 days post op, I want to be like you. I'm only 3 days post op and feel all the pain still.

Yes so often we holler about what we think we need , we fail to see how blessed we are, we have come so far, and we Have Got to Become ME-CHEERLEADERS in our lives. We might turn out to be an inspiration to others who are struggling through the quicksand and briars of their own trek. Wouldn't it be nice if someone said Because of You, I didn't give up!
And a drum roll please! Almost 7 months out, 130 pounds+ since my highest weight, 80 since surgery and proud to say 238.8 pounds, 5 and 3/4 pounds less than Tomkitten ,my son, I am vibrating with joy, he's a tad peeved at the accomplishment, used to hearing me get nagged by one and all medical personages to LOSE LOSE LOSE, wait till I go back for my yearly, they are gonna be SURPRISED! A couple dropped news would be good for the old Ego!👈👸👉

      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.
