keep up the good work hun, have a blessed one

hey everyone!

it is official i am 200 lbs today! since my surgery i lost 9 lbs, and since my journey started i have lost 31lbs and it is noticeable. My son told me that i look younger and he gave me a big hug!!!! I have a meeting when i go back to work next week, and i have been off for 2 weeks and i wonder what people are gonna say? and what am i gonna say? any suggestions?

i was banded 8 days ago! i had a rough week but i am finally coming around! When i went to the dr on monday i was told that i have an AP standard band and he did leave a little Fluid in the band. The said i have only been able to eat like 4-5 small (baby sized) spoonfulls of mushies. Also I am scared to see what happens if i over eat. I have been paying attention to the signs of fullness and i stop eating. my dr said that was great!!:smile:

Take care everyone!

      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.
