Merry Christmas



Recommended Posts

Merry Christmas to all the wonderful forum members on here (both banded and unbanded). I wish you nothing but happiness in the coming year. I hope for those that are banded you have learned a whole new way of life and continue to lose those unwanted pounds. For those of you that lost your bands due to erosion or some other problem I keep you in my prayers that you will be able to be banded again if that is what you want, and for those unbanded let's keep up the good fight and have the patience to see this through to the end. I know the weight is long, but the reward will be wonderful once we are banded.

I truly thank each and every one of you for making me feel so welcome. Enjoy this holiday season, and always remember the true meaning of Christmas.

Merry Christmas everyone!

Eileen - what a beautiful Nativity scene. It reminds me of the Max Lucado book I read my kids lastnight - The Crippled Lamb. Anyone read it before? that book is filled with wonderful fuzzy Christmas feelings.

God bless all of you.

Merry Christmas to all lap-banders

Having the surgery was very hard on me but with the help of all the people on this forum I struggled through and am now doing well. I have learned more from this forum than from any other place.

Thanks again and Happy Holidays to all.

      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.
