Hey Eve,

Great to hear from you. I saw your posting telling people about us and I really apprieciate it. liquids actually kind of grow on you. I am 26 pounds lighter as of today. Thanks for the pino tip I'll have to remember it. We should be opening our office in the next 3-5 weeks. I have found space in Deltona right near the Hospital. We still would like to do house calls but have to start with the office. Hope all is well with you and yours.

Scott

Weigh to go losers!!! I live in Cocoa, FL which is about 10 min. from NASA. It's so wonderful looking at all your pics and thinking I too will look good soon.I'm scheduled for my band 8/28/06 with a local GI surgeon. I realized I'd have to pay double but in the long run, I feel I've made the right decision. If anyone is in the area or not, give me a shout.

Look whose talking Iulizbug!!! You were 241 now 174!!! that's 67lbs 5 months... exceeding 10lbs per month by dropping 13.4lbs per month. You rock Iulizbug!!! You are 14lbs away from goal and that's impressive to say the least! Imagine that. Reaching goal weight in 6 - 7 months of surgery. Quite impressive.

      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.
