Hello all... Here is a link to my personal Facebook page... In order to be a member of the October Bandster group on facebook you have to be a personal friend of one of the members. Due to respecting the privacy of all members, i had to make the group secret, which means no one can access the group at all unless invited in. You cant even pull up the link. So do me a favor, click on my facebook link and send me a friend request. Once I accept your request, send me an inbox message letting me know you want to be added to October bandsters & I will definitely add you!!! I am so sorry about any inconvenience. I want everyone to come & join us!!! The more the merrier!!!

My name on facebook is Allyson LapBandLiving Lewis... Click on the link below!!! Hope to see all of you soon!!!

Hi everyone~

Its been a while since I have posted. Just wanted to update you on my progress. I was banded mid October 2011. I am down 52 pounds. I have only had one band tightening so far and they only filled it with a half of a cc due to vomiting. I have to say the vomiting seems to be getting worse but I am holding out hope. I don't feel bad at all. I actually feel really good but somedays (most days) nothing wants to stay down. It is frustrating but what are ya gonna do? I am due to go back for a tightening this month but not sure how much they will be able to fill it due to the vomiting. I do want to mention a wonderful, wonderful discovery. At my 3 month check up my lab values were worse than ever before. My Vitamins were off and my cholesterol was was 270 (total) I was introduced to ADVOCARE products. Long story short....I started taking there vitamins and drinking their products called Spark (best thing every created!!!!) In 6 weeks time all of my viatmins are perfect and my cholesterol has dropped 50 points and still declining. I decided to take a leap of faith and sell these products to others. It has changed our lives (mine, my husband, and my children) We are all new people...truly. If any of you out there are having similar issues just let me know and I can direct you in the right direction to get you started. I am a healthcare professional and the thing that sold me was that the med/science board that creates these products are world renowned. Its people that we use there stuff in the hospital daily. Its not just JOHN DOE creating a gimmick.

      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.
