Whenever you get a weight loss post it. :D (That goes for all of you.) I'll try to keep up with it!

Oh, and when you get fills, throw it up here too. That way we can keep track of how our month is doing. Might help for moral support in some form or fashion, lol. :D

Hi Everyone ~ CONGRATULATIONS ~

This is a good Idea Janet, thanks for keeping track of the Feb06 Bansters.

I'm scheduled for surgery on 02/15/05 with Dr. Schuster

(a great V'day gift to ourselves - don't you think)

Today's the first day of my pre-op liquid diet so no weight loss yet, but I'll let you know as I progress.

I'm sooooo looking forward to this journey.

Lou

That's awesome Elisa! Keep it up! ;)

I've heard as you go back to solid food that you'll gain some... so don't get discouraged, keep your eyes on the long-term prize! ;)

I'm day 4 (almost day 5) into my 10 day liquid diet and I've lost 6 pounds. This is really hard though and like Stacey I am also STARVING!!!

It's worth it though and kind of fun to see the scale plummet for once in my life. LOL

WOO-HOO down another pound!!! So that makes 15 all together. I have surgery on Monday, I am getting a little nervous!!!

Still starving, but still losing. Green On Oprah said that in order to lose weight you have to feel "hunger" He said that gnawling feeling you get like you feel like you could eat the house down, is your body burning fat...and if you give in to that feeling you have sabotaged the weight loss for that moment or day. Kinda put things into perspective!

Ok, Its day 2 of the liquid diet and I am down 4lbs from yesterday. Yippee!! I am sure its just Water weight, but I will take it!! So far the liquid diet isnt bad, but I am sure that wil change quickly. Although I must say, the "healthy" broth I had yesterday made me feel like I was basting a turkey in my mouth. Yuck!!

Good luck everyone!

      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.
