I have an appointment for a fill on September 9th and my appointment is not until 3:30 Pm which means I can't eat all day! I can have liquids though so maybe I'll sip on some broth for lunch. Lol I am hungry just thinking about it. It will be my first fill in over 3 months.

All day seems harsh. My surgeon says no food for 4 hours no liquid for one prior to a fill. I'm hungry for you.. On the positive side it'll start your future weight loss off well. Have Soup... :)

They do them often here too I just haven't been in awhile because I was losing good weight. Its slowed down a lot so I think it's time for another. I am so going to celebrate! I have been slowly buying newer sexier panties the smaller I get LOL! I love it. Not sure what I'll do but I am thinking of definitely rewarding myself somehow. Not the old way I use to reward myself. (Food!) Ohh maybe a sexy pair of boots!

Thank You Sweet Lady! :)

I dropped 3 lbs the first week! So excited 13 more to go.

The band is a comfortable tight right now but I like the restriction I am getting.

      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.
