I'm getting frustrated with this site. I keep going to threads marked or listed as todays dates, but when I go there all I find are some replys as old as 2004. Maybe, I'm nut utilizing the site properly? Help.... please.

Nykee - you can always find out where you are and navigate at the top.

General terminology:

"Board" = the entire site, lapbandtalk.com.

"Forum" = a designated area or "room" on the board. When you first login, forums are what you see listed (e.g. General Lap-Band Discussion and Lap-Band Talk Lounge) are both forums on the lapbandtalk board.

"Thread" = a specific conversation topic within a forum. Threads are also referred to as posts, but technically posts are the individual responses within the thread.

I wrote a pretty thorough "how to use this place" guide for a friend who wanted to join here but was clueless as to what to do... screenshots telling her what's what and what it does. Would that be helpful?

      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.
