How much do you have in your band and what size is your band, when did you get in the green zone? What do you usually eat and did you work out alot?

I currently have 5.5 cc in my band. I think my band is a 10cc. I hit the green zone about month 4.

I am not exactly sure but I think I've had six fills. My doctor is very stingy when it comes to fills he really wants to make sure I need them!

From the minute I was able to eat regular food which was three weeks after surgery I have been eating 1000 cal per day each meal consists of 4 ounces of Protein, 1/2 cup of veggies and 1/4 cup of starch. I allow myself 2 Snacks per day... each not exceeding 100 calories.

I have not done any formal exercise at all but I have started walking and biking now that I am almost to goal.

I have the same amount of weight to loose that you've lost, I'm a quarter of the way there after three months. You give me so much inspiration that I can get there. You look amazing and are gorgeous, just WOW.

One question if that's ok, do you find you have much excess skin?

You look awesome can you give me ideas of what foods you ate like what is always on your grocery list and do you sometimes eat what your not supposed to eat ( junk food, fast food )?

its not as bad as I have seen...but there i most certainlly excess skin. I would say the worst places are my upper thighs, under arms and boobs. My tummy isnt too bad but I have a 1/2 inch of flap at the hip area and my belly button now frowns which i really hate. Nothing a Tummy Tuck and boob job will not fix. I am not sure about getting the arms and thighs done.... that seems very drastic to me although I am sure they would look better.

The good thing is I look pretty good in clothes. In a bathing suit I look...well... a little wrinkled. But I think thin, healthy and wrinkled is better than fat and unhealthy.

      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.
