i just celebrated my two year anniversary with my band. This is the first time I have been to this site, tho...I mean, I joined two years ago, but forgot with the meds, I guides.

I have lost between 65-70 lbs, depending on the day. My goal was to get to 150, which is still twenty lbs to go. I was stalled at sixty lbs for a long time, then started working out at a gym. I lost ten lbs. Within a month and now stay at that weight. I plan to hire a trainer in august, which should help with ten of this lbs. I have a big event in September that I want to look fab for...I havent seen my siblings in four yrs and the weight loss should set them back...they made some pretty ugly comments when I was at my heaviest.

I love being able to shop on the Missy dept at stores and have been really pleased with my progress. It is just those last few lbs.....I do wealk three miles every morning, he'll or high Water, which has helped my mood and sleep tremendously.

      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.
