Hey guys...Well its the night before a follow up with my surgeon~ And I always get a little tweeky before seeing him.....Thoughts of gainning weight, not being the perfect banster, having to admit to all my wrong doings ( well if the dr asks that is). This is almost as if I were going to confession the day after the Prom!!! I usually make out good.....(for those of you who have seen my posts before the dr visit and after the dr visit can testify to!) Im pretty sure this time in I am getting a fill and Im nervous about that...then again, I thought the same thing last month. However this time, I feel like I need it. I am hungry, I can eat a lot in one sitting...but I am getting stuck...and why is that?? Cause of this habit that I CAN NOT BREAK of big bites and chewing till my face falls off~~

Okay, thats enough....thanks for listening guys! :eek

I know about those big bites! I get stuck, too - too much! Even if I take smaller bites, if I do ANYTHING besides concentrate on chewing, then I forget to chew well enough!!! Arghhhhh. Do not worry about talking to the doc - look at how much weight you've lost! You're doing great! Good luck on that fill if that's what you end up doing!

hey guys...back from the dr..i did get the fill. now im up to 2.5. i gotta do one shake for each meal for two days...then two shakes a one pureed meal for two days then two shakes and a regular meal....this is all to get my stomach use to my new fill. i also have to up the exercise which is nooo big surprize, but im a little ascared of this fill!!! gotta baby it i supose......i have been plateaued at 215 for a few months...the weight on my signature isn't right cause my scale is a big ol liar!!! I will adjust it to match my weigh ins with my drs office. I have desided not to weigh in at home any more because 1) my scale is a big ol liar, and 2) im not gonna stress out over the numbers. I gotta go back to some basics here.....and putting myself first is one of them! Life has been screwy over these few months plus the holidays so i came out victorious over those two situations...I didn't gain anything!!!! but now its crunch time...literally!!!! :confused:

okay guys, thanks for listening! talk to you soon~

      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.
