Already hit my MAIN goal after 4 months!



Recommended Posts

I was banded 10/15/10 so almost 5 months ago. Not only am I 65 lbs down but I am no longer insulin resistant and am off medication for it and high blood pressure!!! I have been insulin resistant for about 10 years and never thought it would just go away! My monthly cycle is normal now and I am completely healthy!!! This was my major goal getting banded. I didnt think it would happen so fast but Im so excited. I just had to share with my bandster family!!

You are awesome! Keep up the fantastic work! This gives me such hope to read things like this. I have such high hopes for this procedure and my first year goal isn't necessarily to lose all that I want, which is about another 80 pounds but if I could maintain losing an average of 1 pound a week and lose a little over 50 pounds in the first year...I would be elated. Thank you for posting this because it gives me so much more incentive....

      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.
