Recommended Posts

I could really use some lapband buddies. I was banded on june 1st 2012..its s struggle sometimes. The head hunger is unrelenting. I also see a counselor, although am still going through the process of fining the right one for me. There arent any support groups where I am from...i live 2hrs south of st louis, mo. Althouugh I eat alot less than I used to, I still make alot of bad choices, and stay so angry with myself because of it...if anyone wants to be buddies, add me on facebook..i dont have a computer, and only have a non droidphone, so I get these updates via facebook...good luck yall ;)

Yay! I love this website lol. Probably not' date=' i love her to death but I don't like judgement and I have always been judged my whole life with my weight, and she is the one person who has never judged me in any way and ive never had to talk to about it or mention anything weight related to her so I wanna keep it that way haha.I know I should but Idk...maybe once i actually lose weight...or when I can no longer go out to eat all the time with her ;P[/quote']

I was going through the same thing. And once I told her I felt better and she did not judge me at all!!

      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.
