  1. Hey darling! I see that your still scared to go under. Have you talked to your doctor about this? Maybe he/she would be able to calm your nerves. Surgery is monday!! I know your nervous but get excited! I really wish I had something to say that would help you. This will be my 4th time going under, so it all seems so simple to me, prolly why im not nervous. Look at all these people that have such success! Just get your butt to the hospital and let them do their thing!!! You will be fine and on to such a better life!

  2. Im down 30 pounds and I can see it in my face just a bit and my work pants fit better.. but other then that, no change.
  3. Today is the big day!!!! Let me know how it goes.

  4. Well i have lost 31 pounds since the end of January when I started my 3 month diet. I can notice in my face that I lost weight and my pants fit better now, but other then that no no difference :-(... I cant wait to be banded and start losing enough where its obvious that I lost the weight!
  5. Im so excited for you! I cant wait to hear how it went.

  6. Thats awesome! Im jealous. lol. Surgery is monday... just waiting it out.. seems like these past couple days arent moving. lol

  7. Im calling to find out tomorrow.. haha
  8. no nailpolish? what! I was going to go get a pedi and mani tomorrow before surgery monday.. now im wondering if I shouldnt :-(
  9. I am on my 2 week pre-op diet and i have eaten one Protein shake with almond milk, a half banana, and a tablespoon of Peanut Butter and one bottle of diet snapple. I am finally getting hungry enough to want to have another shake soon. This is how its been for about 4 days now. Is it bad that im not eating more than this, im still dropping the weight daily. I just am no longer hungry.
  10. You look great and I was reading your blog, such an inspiration! I get banded monday and hoping to have as much success as you!

  11. Kerri, ignore the scale right now! You are recovering from surgery!
  12. Hi hun! Another person from chicago! Looks like you get banded in about a month, how excited are you?!?! Whos your surgeon?

  13. The first day I thought I would never make it! Then it got easier. About day 5 for me I wasnt hungry at all and I now have to force myself to eat. It seems like im the only one with this problem, so dont look forward to that. lol The only good thing about this diet is that I am down 16 pounds in 11 days.

    All I have eaten today

    Maybe you should cut the diet pop out... it makes you hungry! Plus after you get banded no more pop!!!
  15. I get pretty jealous when i hear things like this! haha its almost over for me tho. only 4 more days left of it!
  16. Ya, the nervousness hasnt quite set in just yet! I think it will start this weekend. I am so over this liquid diet. I can not be more excited for week two of post op to get to mushies. You will be fine! Let me know how it goes :-)

  17. Ya i think the last day is going to be the most rough! Your almost there! I could have had my surgery this past monday when I was setting it up, but I freaked out and pushed it to next monday. haha. I am so ready to be on normal foods again, your so lucky you didn't need to do two weeks! Im not hungry just missing chewing. lol Make sure you let us know how it goes after surgery!

    Pre-Op diet/Fasting.

    Before going on the pre-op diet I was working out a lot and 2 days a week with a personal trainer. When i had my pre-op appt I asked if I should still be working out. They of course told me not to stop, but that she was afraid I was going to be hungry. That could be why you are hungry. Im never hungry anymore. I have to force myself to eat. As long as your staying on track working out is a great idea!
  19. You need to have self control during this time! Eat the right things and go for walks.
  20. Go to quick links at the top right of the page and click it and look for edit signature. Whatever you write there will show up every time you post.

    question?

    wow thats terrible! My insurance would have accepted anything from any doctor as long as it was documented. During my 3 month diet all I had to go was go there and weigh in. I didnt have to do any of the stuff that you were required to do. I think it all depends on the insurance!

    I got Approved Today!!!

    Congrats! Thats great news. All pre-op diets are different it depends on your surgeon. I am on all liquids for 2 weeks.
  23. Your insurance should go by your starting BMI.. but you would have have to check with them. I am getting banded monday and I have lost 31 pounds since I started my 3 month diet at the end of January. I am hoping to be down to 35 by the time surgery comes around.. I was told that the less you way the less chance of complications. I was just doing it for me tho, a jump start on the weight loss and now my pants fit better!
  24. No i dont get banded till monday :-( Your before me!!

  25. How is the liquid diet going? The date is nearing!
