lol ok.

How many of you are Canadians, and if you are, are you living in Canada? Cause... that's what I'm getting at with this question. :)

I'm looking to see who fellow Canadians got banded by IN Canada. Thank you anyway though.

I was banded in Boise, Idaho by the most wonderful surgeon a bandster could hope for.. Dr. Robert Cahn. Only a month into this and feeling great. I'm very excited about what this year has in store for us!

By the way.. all of you posting here, take a sec to go to the STATS thread in the General Discussion forum and post your info to be included in the LBT study we are doing! Here is the link to take you to it:

      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.
