I've been stuck at home so I've been binge-watching The Walking Dead. Dtrain84, has anyone told you that you resemble Lenny James, the actor that plays Morgan? He is FINE, but he doesn't have your guns!

I'm so glad you posted about your continued success and showed us photos of you looking toned and fit.

You've helped me get over a mini-depression after hearing one person say that her bariatric surgeon said that *every* patient gains 10-15% of their weight back around three years post-surgery, seeing a photo of a three-year post-op who had gained back about 40 lbs., and then having my primary care physician tell me that all of her bariatric patients so far have gained back all of their weight.

So thank you again!

You're welcome! I known a few friends who had surgery and some of them gained a percentage of their weight back, I've also have some who have kept the weight off for over 10 years. I just continue to do what I did in losing weight by staying active and my food choices.

      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.
