i need help too...PLEASE HELLLLPPPP!!! LOL =) i know i have no one to blame but myself. i've been battling these last 20 pregnancy pounds for the last two years, and once i do (if i do) hit the pre-pregnancy weight i have 20lbs more to go for goal. i feel like i'll never make it! i get my fills done in T.J., the doc is open 1 saturday out of the month, most of the time i have some function i can't back out of so i don't go as often and when i do make it out there, i kid you not every time i go i need to get Fluid taken out because my esophagus is irritated...wth?! i'm irritated with being irritated!!!! i currently have 2.0cc in my 4.0 band...i can't get back on track. my time is consumed being a mommy, wife, and work. at times i feel like i got banded for nothing...well not nothing, my ultimate goal was to have a baby, so it wasn't in vain. but i forgot that feeling or spark i had when i got banded...i can't even remember how i lost so much weight, what i did, and most of all i lost my motivation...ugh!!!! whatchutalkingabout_smile.gif

I got on the site today to get remotivated and I can't express how great it is to always find what I'm looking for. I have lost 70lbs with 20 more to go and have totally fallen off the wagon. I eat like a college student and don't drink Water and have neglected the gym. After the last bit of weight I lost everyone was comlimenting me and responding to me differently and I think I got lazy. I am trying to re gain some focus so thank you thank you for this post

      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.
