waist is down 5+ inches. Weight is off 100 lbs from my high. My head just got right 13 months after the band so the weight loss is ramping back up. Now I'm finally okay with having 1 side item and/or Soup being my entire order when I eat out. 2 hard boiled eggs now stuff me and work as a meal. If I could just kick the 2-3 dailu trenta sugar free vanilla iced coffees with a ton of 2% milk, I'd lose another lb per week. How is everybody else doing?

It's all good. Slowly losing weight. A little behind my expected pace but still losing. I've found my old little friend again. He was lost for a few years but he's back and hanging in there ;)

Sounds like u are doing sooo well :) .. u have 3 options, keep doing what u are doing and enjoy your coffee, reduce your coffee to just one a day treat and maybe lose a little faster, or cut it out completely and maybe lose a little more ... personally try reducing the amount u drink, u might find that works for you just fine :)

So good to hear so many people so happy with their new smaller bodies eh?

      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.
