I just wanted to say a big THANK YOU to all my fellow November bandsters for all the support during my pre-op time. Tomorrow is my day and I am excited and shhhhhhhh a littlel nervous. To everyone getting banded tomorrow best of luck; and to those ontheir pre-op diets and those about to start them hang in there, stay focused. If I can do it anyone can. I will let y'all know how everything went as soon as I can.

Lori,

One thing I can't wait to do is NOT shop at Lane Bryant, EVER AGAIN!!! Thanks for showing me that!

If I ever see a Lane Bryant again it will be too soon. I can't wait to be able to shop at any store instead of just one.

      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.
