Just an update to let you all know, my EGD was uneventful and there are no signs of erosion, no esophageal dilitation, the esophagitis seems better and I had 3cc fill replaced, so I'm back on the road again. Thank goodness. Thanks for all your well wishes and support.

Now to nurse this sore throat... fun, fun, fun..

Leatha, I feel your pain, I've been nursing my own sore throat for about a week and hoping that I don't pass it on to MsJoy. She's 9 days post-op and I don't think she needs it. But I must say, I do miss kissing her.:cry

Yay, Leatha!! Great news all around. Take care of yourself and that throat. I'm fighting my way through a bad bronchitis and feel pretty crappy myself. You have my deepest sympathies.

Rene, I have been banded twice. I have not lost ALL my weight. Yet, I would still do it again. Never before have I been able to lose weight or maintain any weight loss as I have with the band. There may still come a day that I have to give it up, but for today. I am still very grateful to have it and to have had this great opportunity.

      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.
