I have made 1 year and am happy with my success. I have lost 70 so far. I feel so much better and I have went down 4 pants sizes and back in XL shirts . My blood work has been great and still working on my BP. Joined a gym a couple weeks ago and have been trying to get back into that swing. LOL ! My wife is now in the process of doing it also !!!

I was reading on another thread how some bandsters have lost 20-30 lbs in 3 years. I don't know about any of you but if I only lose 20-30 lbs after three years, I would be devastated. I know some of you would say that it's better to lose some than gain some, but I still don't think it's enough. I pray this does not happen to me!

      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.
