I am 16 months post sleeve surgery and my appetite seems to be returning. I don't like this at all...

I am so afraid of that happening. That is the biggest reason I had this done. I would actually get the shakes I'd be so hungry. Does your surgeon or nutritionist have any suggestions?

@@Theresa H - Perfectly normal. However your sleeve still can only hold so much. Hopefully at 16mths you have put into place new eating habits and behaviors that will assist you in not regaining.

I just watched a video on youtube by Dr. Matthew Weiner that might be helpful to you. The title is "How to Prevent Your Stomach from Stretching after Weight Loss Surgery."

I love seeing Dr. Weiner's videos. He is close to me so I became a pre-op patient with his practice! His website is very informative!

      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?

      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.
