"pawn Stars"- Corey, Was He Banded?



Recommended Posts

Hello,

Someone mentioned that Corey, from the History Channel's, "Pawn Stars" had LapBand surgery. I watch the show all the time and Corey is my favorite guy in the family. He's so smart, kinda cute too.

Have you heard anything about this?

“I was watching this lawyer’s commercial and it was talking about the side effects of this drug, and I was on that medication because of my weight. I went and got a Lap-Band put in and the weight just started falling off. It was like someone took a backpack full of rocks off of you.”~ Corey

Hopeful, The story of Corey getting the lap band was the 'sign' I needed to go through with my initial appointment. I was so scared, the non refundable deposit was taking a large chunk out of the family coffers and I was scared. I sat at my desk and asked myself for the hundredth time if I was doing the right thing and up pops the article about Corey. It was just coincidence but for me it was the last push I needed to go through with the whole process. So glad that I saw the article when I did.

THANK YOU for the link! I didn't want to think he had it done when he hadn't. Good to know he's so successful, gives hope to all of us.

      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.
