Recommended Posts

That is excellent Leo. Donali....thanks for that post (eating box of pizza) I know exactly what you are saying. Not that I still don't want the pizza, but, my body won't let me even eat one piece with out getting the crust stuck

Not too big wow, 17 pounds in less than 10 days??? I am so jealous. It took me 2 months to lose that. Congrats. (I know, I know, everyone is different)

My mini goal was 235, what I was when my husband fell in love at first sight with me. Man was he blind ha ha Next goal 219 or Misses size 18 whichever comes first. I am tired of the plus sizes. I have gone from a 24w to a 18w so, I can't complain too much

Fantastic Leo! You look wonderful! Reading your posts and Donali and Alexandra really reinforce my decision to be banded. I think this is a wonderful tool because it encourages slower and more healthful weight-loss and it stops the rollarcoaster ride of dieting. I think my heart would just literally break if I went on one more "diet" and worked my bunzzz off to lose a large amount of weight... only to GAIN it all back PLUS more! Seeing that the band has stopped that down and up cycle really makes it difficult to wait for banding.

I'm off to peek at your website;)

Yes, Health was a major reason for me also. Dieting and taking diet drugs is not a permanent solution and is harmfull for your health. My doctor told me I had a liver problem. Elevated something, I forgot the term. I wasn't allowed to take any medicine without getting permission from my doctor.

But now everything is back to normal, in perfect health ;)

      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.
