Happy Bandiversary Bunnies!



Recommended Posts

WOW what a year we've all had! Can you believe this is our Bandiversary month already?

Remember all the nightmares of insurance approval, and no sleep the night before LB surgery because we were so excited;

It was almost heaven taking that first shower after surgery!

We had some work to do, learning how not to be a couch potato anymore.

Then we had to learn how to eat right.

and prepare healthy food;

but pretty soon we were losing weight and had to buy new clothes;

Sure there were a few unpleasent changes, like bathroom schedules;

but also nice ones, like being able to wear a bathing suit again;

That was to funny hard to believe how long surgery day seemed to take and now it's been a year already. Congratulations everyone even though it's been a difficult road we are further than we were last year.

      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?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      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.
