LB Accountability Gals

Hello Ladies,

I had a great time meeting you for coffee today for our own little support group.

(For anyone just tuning in, we meet for coffee and support in the Long Beach/OC area. We'll probably get together about once a month and anyone is welcome to join us in person and/or in this thread at any time. We'll post scheduled meet times in this thread.)

I think staying accountable to each other is a great idea. Sharing our struggles and victories will definitely help us know we are not alone on this journey.

Talk to you soon,

Pixistix

To get your own weight loss ticker, go to the Ticker Factory website: http://www.tickerfactory.com. Scroll down and select weight loss, choose the options for your ticker (you can always change these later if you want).

At the end you be asked to choose a password. That is all you'll need to update your ticker in the future.

When you're done creating your ticker, the site will give you a snippet of HTML code. Copy that.

Then go to Lap Band Talk website, sign in, go to your profile, and click on "signature." Paste that snippet of HTML code into the box for your signature.

When you post in a thread, your ticker should appear. Yay.

      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.
