I haven't been banded yet, my estimated date is Nov. still in the waiting like everyone else. i've been trying to diet since it's advised for 6 months. which stinks, but waiting patiently is hard for me. Goodluck June 12th! it's your first step to the lapband! yay!

i need updates! how did everyone's appt. go?

Hi Jourdyn-

I am officially on the other side!

Glad that part is over...actually wasn't too bad.

Now the fun begins. I have the pain in my left shoulder, trying the walking and gas x strips, but nothing yet.

My stomach feels like I got into a fight and got a few sucker punches to my gut- and I lost. LOL

Got about 4 hour sleep, anesthesia wires me vs there are those who are knocked out!

Keep u posted

      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.
