I can wear my jeans again!!!



Recommended Posts

Okay about a week after I was banded I tried on my size 18 jeans. They buttoned but they were TIGHT! I tried them on again last night..they buttoned and within an hour they were constantly falling down:) I'm so excited! I've only lost like 5 pounds in between the first time and the second time I tried them on so maybe my stomach was swollen some also?

I'm so glad I can wear them again! The bad news is I'm having a hysterectomy today so I probably still won't be able to wear them for a while but hopefully by the time I can wear them again they definitely won't fit anymore and I'll need a smaller size:)

Awesome..I am 5 weeks out and can fit well into jeans that were way too tight before too! You probably are losing inches more than weight itself...hopefully you measured yourself before

      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.
