  1. Yes, i'm home already!!! And don't have an appetite at all. I got the ALlergen band and it is already filled.

  2. Thanks Ms. chavel. My journey has begun.

  3. I'm banded.....I had to be there at 6:30 this morning. Went in about 8:30 it went really fast and really well. i have no gas pain. I'm just a little sleepy and sore. I couldn't believe how easy it seemed. good luck and have a speedy recovery.

    The countdown is on!

    My surgery is scheduled for the 25th. It seems I've been waiting forever. I have already signed everything at the hospital and gave up my coins,.....clock is ticking. Today I stayed in the house and was tempted to do some munching as I studied. Everytime I got the urge to go into the kitchen, I just grabbed my water and went to town. I had 2 shakes today, and a salad and some greenbeans with tuna. I made my family mac n cheese with meatloaf and spinich and almost plucked a macaroni in my mouth that fell on the stove. Whew that was close. I usually feed my daughter but my fiancee has had to contend with that job....I'm strong enough to withstand food but not strong enough to feed the baby without temptation.Isn't that a shame? Well, I'm gonna excercise now and get ready for my week. Three more days, then I'm banded. Still tryna find the chewable citrate....no luck in stores here in Houston.

    Hello! Hello! New here...

    I went through True Results in Houston, and I love it!!! The staff is awesome. Most of them have had the surgery themselves and look fabulous.

    Post-op instructions tomorrow

    I with you there! I was gagging on the shakes when I mixed them with cold water. when I started mixing them in the blender, they tasted better. I must admit, I love stepping on the scale and finding out how much I've lost in a day or two just by drinking the shakes. I LOVE IT!!!

    Pre-op Easy

    Well it's not easy but it is alot easier than last week. Now, I don't think twice about the shake. And the SF jello has became quite tasty. Most of the food that my family eats doesn't tempt me. I've got my eye on the prize. A thinner me. I did alot of rigorous excercise today. It including walking my neighborhood and working out in the wii fit. According to the Wii Fit, I've lost another 9lbs since Thursday. But I want to see the doctor's office scale before I count my victory. I can't wait. Four days left before I'm banded.

    Pre-op Easy

    Thanks! I am glad I found this site also because it really encourages me daily to stay focus. And like btrieger said, once I changed my mindset, it was smooth sailing.

    95 pounds. I'm jealous. Tell me how you make your shakes. I have 4 more days til surgery but I'd like to know anyway. I've gotten used to the shakes. Played around with them and the ice and the blender until i got the right blend. but i am curious of others especially since you've been on it for more than two weeks. give me your secret....oh great one...haha
  22. I visited your blogspot. Beautiful children:wink2:
  23. One week before surgery. Weight BGone!
  24. yes, four days left but I will be an outpatient. The diet is holding. I was 248 now, 231. Really happy about that. I 've been starting the days out strong but end up craving at the end of the night. but I never give in. I just drink tons of water and go to bed. I can have 4 shakes a day but i've been having 2 sometimes 3. Let's get this show on the road!!! TTYL
