I was banded today, and I cant even eat jello...I tried 2 tiny bites...and it hurt my stomach...anyone else do this? I feel that I should be able to eat Jello!

I wish I could have a protein shake!! My doc said only clear liquid on day one. :thumbup:

Thank God you guys...I feel SO much better...I was scared something was going horribly wrong!!! It's just Jello, I thought! LOL...Thanks again...You guys are angels.:thumbup:

Poor Rascal...I have definitely been there...I fought for 7 months with my insurance. Chin up...it will happen, just do EVERYTHING they tell you.:thumbup:

My whole freakin family wants to show up too, Eat2live...I hate it...cause no matter what I say they're just gonna come anyway...Expect em' to sneak up there anyway...sometimes there's nothing we can do to stop them.

Tomorrow is the day before my surgery.....and I have been so excited I kinda forgot whether Doc said clear liquid or just any liquid the day before surgery....Yes I have called them and left a message, but, they havent returned my call yet. What did you guys do the day before???:confused2:

Yeah, it doesnt really have to be clear...I found out I can have cranberry juice.:thumbup:

Thank you dahling!!! Have a safe and happy surgery day. And congrats for getting one!!!:crying:

Oh yeah chocolate...:crying::drool::sad: I forgot about chocolate.......Im gonna miss that for sure!!:thumbup: Surgery Friday... wish me luck sweethearts.

I found out it was CLEAR liquids though....no worries...:thumbup:

Thanks so much!!!:thumbup:

Thanks Molly...and Good luck to you as well!!! You are definitely doing the right thing by keeping it between you and trustworthy non blabbers. See you on the other side GF!!

You're right... God love our mothers, but, they just cant help but dish with their sisters and anyone else they know....lol....We will be alright. In fact God LOVE everyone of us. To hell with the naysaying bastards!!:ohmy:

Me neither, from now on Missy!!!!!!!!....You look beautiful, so if thats a product of hard work + Lap band.....SCREW EVERYONE ELSE!!!:Dancing_wub:

LOL!!!! You are too funny...Maybe I WILL steal a line from you there.:Dancing_wub:

:Dancing_wub: Thanks for everyones replies....Yeah, the bad part is That: IM NOT THE ONE TELLING PEOPLE. lol.....It's momma and hubby and the people who are very supportive of me that tell other people...They are excited for me. So I guess that makes up for all the negative assholes.:thumbup:

Oh crap...unjury is a powder mix...sorry girl!

Asherje.....The only question I can answer is the protein drink question, as I have tried many of them...They make a protein shake version of Slim Fast in the can....and Unjury. Unjury is REALLY good but, pricey...But I guess the slim fast cans are expensive too so...Go to unjury.com...The Chocolate one is the best.:cursing:

Im from Kilgore Texas ...near Longview about an hour and a half from dallas....Im being banded April the 11th...Yippeee:lol::cursing:

My band date is April 11th too!!!!!!!!!! Good luck and I wish you a speedy recovery!!!:cursing:

I have been working with my insurance for 7 months now on this to get approved....and for some reason now that my operation date is only 2 weeks away, it feels like its going so slow!!!!!! I feel too exhausted to get excited about it, and now, I just want it to be over!!! I really thought I'd be so much more thrilled at this point but, the insurance company sucked all the give a sh** out of me. Dont get me wrong I DO want this more than ever....I just am not as excited as I thought I'd be, its kind of a dissapointing feeling. Anyone else feel this way??

I voted for you!! You deserve it!!

Wow...truckaholic....you must be really freakin tall!! lol...no offense. (307 lbs...with your bmi being only 40)

Thank you so much for your words of encouragement! I gained weight too!!! I GAINED 35 LBS WHILE WAITING FOR THIS!!! Horrifying...How much did you gain?? Congrats on your success by the way.
