Recommended Posts

Yeah !!!!blkgranny.gif

I finally did it 99kilos....UNDER THE 100 kilo mark... icon_razz.gificon_razz.gif

Probably not eating all yesterday due to my aching tooth...( saw the dentist yesterday no cavity but infected tooth on antibiotics next week getting root canal done) well it was worth it to break that barrier..and I am NOT going above it ever again...

The last fill I had hasn`t made any difference it was just .4 bringing my fill to 3.6 I would say they will put .4 in again Friday week and bring me up to 4mls (7mils being the top amount of fill in a 10mil Hage Band...) the doctor said most people find their sweet spot betweem 4 and 5 mils....fingers crossed mine is not far off....

Gotta go off to change my ticker line.... icon_razz.gificon_razz.gif whoo !!!!!

Thanks Karen ... I too miss my computer ..its back yeah ..!!!

Thanks guys ..

Back home and really happy lost 2 kilos in two weeks ..its been 4 months since my banding and I have averaged 5 kilos a month icon_razz.gificon_razz.gif

My clothes are all loose and baggy and its feels GREATtttttttttttttttt...Don`t want to buy too much so wear the baggy stuff most of the time have a few smaller items for outings..

I got a .7 mil fill because I told them I didn`t notice the .4 mil fill last time at all ..I now have 4.3mils and the dietitian assurres me it will SLOW DOWN my eating as thats my problem eating too fast ..(The bands max fill is 7mls)..

I am on soft foods for 24hours so will have a yogurt now (late lunch ) and eggs for dinner..then my normal porridge for breakie ...

I hope everyone has a wonderful weekend ....

Marion

      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.
