"Too bad you didn't wait til after the holidays..."
stl2atl07 commented on salty1986's blog entry in Blog 79584
You have a great way of looking at it, not focusing this holidays based on what foods we can eat. I guess we have done this or we would be in the position. When I went to my Consult today I was very concerned I was going to get a Preholiday Date. I didn't want the Holidays to be Focused on Mommy being sick for my 6 year old. As it turned out, That Surgeon was not for me, and my Information Seminar is now January 14th. Like you said, I believe things happen for a reason. This doesn't mean I am going to eat everything in site for the next two months, or even through the holidays. I still plan to eat healthy, and try to increase my exercise. I'm going to take a tip for you if you don't mind. I'm going to make these holidays about more than just food. Celebrate the Reason for the Season. Enjoy your Journey, I pray it goes well for you! -
Hi, Pam! Liquid Diets can be an great option to shrink your liver for the surgery but its not the only way to do the pre op diet. www.sparkpeople.com is a great free tool to a diet plan to stay within 1000 calories, and journal your nutrition. I love Spark People myself! You can set yourself other kinds of goals, too! Great motivational too. I'm looking forward to upgrading my phone where I can access Spark people from my phone and journal my food choices. I had a blog at blogger if you would like to read it. Its at www.kickinfatsazz.blogspot.com Im just a beginner blogger myself, but feel free to add any comments. When is your band date?

stl2atl07 posted a topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Im just wondering if Anyone here gotten an approval for Lapband with Medicaid, and if so in what State. I'm in Georgia, and I'm wondering what I'm up against. I know it can be approved. Thanks! -
I dont know yet Annie. I go from my Consult Tomorrow. Hopefully I will have some kind of an idea when I get home. Are you banded?

Thank you, We had a lot of fun, I will probably be a Gypsy next year. -
I bought some Protein bars, Atkins and Snickers brand. I bought Eas MyoPlex Protein Drinks 25 g of Protein per serving. I haven't tried the Drink yet. I tried the Snickers Protein Bar, it has 21grams of Protein but it also has 320 calories in just one bar. I think I am going to give them to my kids. They taste really good. I haven't tried the Atkins bar yet but they only have 10 grams of Protein per bar in them, and 160 calories. One reason for this may just be size, the Atkins bar is 1/3 of the Size of the Snickers Marathon Bar.
I tried to eat my dinner slowly tonight, and before I knew it I had gulped it all down. It's going to be so hard to learn to eat so slowly. I intend to and then I get head hunger and I want to eat everything I can find. Lord help us.

No, I haven't gotten approved yet. I have my consult with my Lapband Surgeon this Thursday. I'm pretty sure he is going to send me for tests because I have been having G.I. issues. I already have an appt scheduled with the G.I. Doctor on December 3rd. so I'm ahead of him. I've considered rescheduling my Consult but Other banders told me to go ahead and go see him. I just want to get the ball rolling. Sorry you were sick, Brochitis is miserable. Hope you are feeling good now.

Should I reschedule Consult with Surgeon?
stl2atl07 posted a topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I have been having some major G.I. issues. This weekend I had diarhea, nausea, sweatting, cramping was about 50 hours in row. I took Tagament and Prisolec to no avail. I finally was able to get some prescription Imodium and that slowed what was happening. I don't have a virus, this has happen several times before. My Consult with Lapband Surgeon is Thursday morning. Should I reschedule until I find out whats going out with my G.I. track? I see the G.I. Doctor on December 3rd. :wink2: -
I can't get in at all. First time I have tried since Friday though. Ive been sick. :wink2:

hey there! Sorry it took so long to reply. Ive been sick in the bed. Having G.I. issues. My Surgeon consult is this Thursday I am hoping whatever is wrong with my G.I. track is not going to stop me from getting a Lapband. I have an appt with a G.I. Specialist December 3rd I wish I could go sooner. It's easier to do high protein, low carbs right now because its so much easier on my stomach. I can't do any high carbs, or high sugar without getting really sick. Almost makes me wish I could just stay sick and lose all my weight this way. Not really. Its painful. What protein Drinks are you trying? Im going to order some of the Protein Blitz by Designer Whey from Vitamin Shoppe. I read they taste a lot like Propel and I love Propel. I agree this something we are going to do for the rest of our lives, and its exciting! I want to get healthy, Let's kick Fat's azz !
