Recommended Posts

When I can't eat, I write.

I'm exactly one week out from my surgery and on day 2 of my pre-op diet and I've started a blog.

Feel free to follow the link in my siggie if you want to follow. There are only two posts, but it's something.

Anyone else blogging about this rollercoaster we're on?

I thought about blogging, but not sure I could keep up with it. I enjoyed your blog. I will definitely keep reading yours. It's nice to know someone else is going through what I'm going through. You're about a week ahead of me so now I can see what I have to look forward too.

Keep blogging! I'm reading!

I've never blogged in the past, but after reading several amazing WLS stories, I've decided to jump on the band wagon. I'm mostly doing it for myself, so that I can have a diary of this journey and because I think it will help keep me on track.

I'm getting my band on June 28th! I'm so ready.

I created one too, but I might end up moving off Blogger if I can't figure out how to customize it more.

I'm used to running Wordpress blogs, and can add/remove my own elements with ease on those. Blogger is easy as far as posting goes, but it's all XML, which is not something I know how to tweak. :smile:

So, we'll see how it goes. I'd prefer not to host this one myself if I can get away with it. heh

Fed up with being overfed

I blog as well. I started it so people who are banded in Korea could see life through another bandster but then it turned into reading the experience of a bandster who has had erosion, Lipo, balloon etc.

There are many different things and challenges that can happen to bandsters that might be interesting for you guys to read.

Since then I have also basically turned into the foreign bandster rep for my doc as people ask me about him all the time.

The topics that last few months werent mostly about banding because I lost my band but I am getting banded again soon so it could be good to read about someone being banded twice.

Hey everyone - Im blogging as well. Its about my journey with the band and its also half food blog - I post a lot of recipes. I'm a passionate cook :) I love seeing how many calories I can reduce in recipes while still making delicious flavors. If you're looking for some band friendly food ideas (or just want to read about my journey with my band), check it out!

      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.
