Need a title for new forum



Recommended Posts

There has been some interest in starting a new FORUM for people that have lost their bands.

We need a name for this new Forum so put on your thinking hats and help us give it a deserving name.

IT will give us that have lost our bands a place to discuss specific topics that aren't directly related to the LapBand. I for one would like to have a place we nonbandstars can visit and get that support. Don't get me wrong we get lots of support from all you bandsters but it is nice to talk to someone that is experiencing the same things. RIGHT?

So what is a good name for this new forum?

I know it's silly, but every time I think about it, I come up with "3 piece combo" since you really aren't with the band anymore. Maybe Roadies? I get all these musical pictures when I think of "the band." Maybe "the Managers."

I don't know, but yeah, y'all need a dedicated forum.

      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.
