That is awesome!!! getting the band was the best thing that I have done for myself. I have an awesome trainer in Joshua who will come to your house if you want her number. We also work out at the park in Joshua, weather permitting, and I am always game for people to join in. I compare her to Jillian Michaels on Biggest Loser. I am down 75 lbs and still dropping. Hope everything went well with your surgery.

I'm doing good! I had surgery on 11/16/12 and I'm down a little over 17 lbs. How about you? When was your surgery, how much have you lost and who was your surgeon? Maybe we can meet sometime for a misto (Starbucks)?

      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.
