people to correspond with (daily) for accountability.

something similar like accountability partners. you can

say what you ate or didnt eat, exercised or not or whatever.

just some place to go and get it off your mind if you need to.

but being accountable to yourself.

if interested, let me know.

Hi Carolinagirl! Congrats on your 53lbs loss, that is awesome!!!!

I have a question, what is lapband with implication? How is that different than just a lapband?

Also if your seeking accountability, have you tried Myfitnesspal? You can log on and invite friends, track your meals and exercise.

thanks for the compliment. i sure appreciate that.

no i do not do fitness pal but thanks for that info. i go another route with record keeping..

i wanted to start a posting for people who wanted to post daily about their ups/downs or whatever w/no questions asked.

the plication is similar to the sleeve but w/o cutting. they fold the stomach and suture it into a small (banana look) shape. kinda new but seems to be doing the job w/me.

have a great day

I'd be interested in this also. I'm not being banded until Sept. 24, but I want to become part of an accountability group or partnership. It would be really helpful!

Maybe try creating a new group? And so whoever wants to join can just go there and post each day

Please let me know if you do start a new group. I would be glad to join and don't want to miss the post. ;-) Wish I would have known of the "plication" before I had mine. I think I may have opted for that too!

      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.
