Ayla there's a secret group on fb for only female sleevers in their 20s. If you want to join, message me your fb username and I will tell the admin to add you.

So, I've been on my high protein/low carb diet since the 1st. I lost like 5 pounds but now I've gained :( hoping the weight gain is no indication of my liver not shrinking. Please please please let my insides be good for surgery Tuesday!!

I sent you my info . Your on the liquid diet? I lost 40 lbs before my liquid diet then when I got on it I cheated and gained 10 pounds but that was 9 days ago when I went to get my blood tested. I had my last blood check yesterday and I had lost 15 pounds in 9 days from just liquid no cheating. The best thing to drink is carnation instant Breakfast. With skim milk. It's the best one I've had. The other ones taste like Protein lol ish! Your not only hungry mentally but you physically get hungry. I felt sick for awhile. But now I'm just pumped to get it. Stay strong don't cheat! My doc said you will know your livers shrinking if you lose a significant amount of weight during the liquid diet. Hope it helps (:

Im not on a liquid diet, its just high Protein low carbs. I cheated ONE time a few days ago but I had lost since then and it was VERY small amount. I decided for these last few days I am just going to do clear liquid and hope it gets me where I need to be by Tuesday.

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
