:)Hi everyone- Ive just discovered this site and im overjoyed. I had lap band surgery on Aug 19th at Lennox Hill Hospital in NYC. My doc was Mitchell Roslin. So far Ive had two fills and have only lost 30 lbs. I say "only" but I am happy to be going the other way. My starting weight WAS 271, and Id like to lose @ 80 lbs total. I do not have a web site up yet, but im working on it. Im so looking forward to meeting you!.........................Lanie

In your signature line. You can get one at tickerfactory.com. Use the bbCode, but elimiate all the bits about the URL. This can be done manually, or by pasting the addy into a Word or a text editor first then copy it from there to your signature here. By doing this, it removes the active URL link and turns it into plain text.

To maually edit it, paste it into your signaure line and then remove the secitons I have colored. (They wont be colored on yours)

      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.
