You were once a NEWBIE too. What's your problem? Get over it already.

This post is NOT harassing newbies...there are MANY newbies that sent me private messages THANKING ME...to let them know how to minimize and avoid any potential issues that CAN happen with their bands...

Sorry if you are not a proactive person that cares about their health...if you feel that this thread scares you...just don't read it...no one is pointing a gun to your head to make you read what I have to say..if you don't like it or don't think what I am saying IS TRUE...don't open up the thread...

Old band- new band- why did you get a replacement band?

My old band sprung a leak. No fault of mine, just bad luck. So I chose to get a new band, because after extensive testing, it was proven that the band works really well for me. Good weight loss, good maintenance and I've suffered no physical damage from having had the band long term. :)

When this topic die out...no more warnings...it seems like ignorance keep it going...I constantly get alerted on the topic...so as long as ignorance keep it hot...I guess I will keep educating... :P

Because I don't agree with your sky is falling approach to "educating", doesn't mean I or anyone else is ignorant or "lives in a bubble". Quite the opposite, maybe we have educated ourselves and realize your OPINION is just that...your OPINION. I'm glad you didn't try and educate my surgeon as you say you did yours.....he'd have laughed you out of town. Did they do that to you on OH?

WOW I can't stand the anger that is going on here. As an outsider it looks pretty bad. I don't think Nana has done anything wrong and has answered questions no differently then anyone else. I feel like there are a lot of bullies on here and not sure if I want to be part of this anymore.

They know that I've not done anything wrong...I guess they are trying to "gang" up on me" with "evil bullying rules"....

I post nothing but FACTS...if that hurt -- so be it...

But I am too strong and smart for that to let ignorant strangers try to bully me from behind a keyboard.......

Hahahaha facts my butt! Facts need research. You're experience is not research. Funny because all I simply posted on this forum was about the stats posted being terrifying. You're rude and thinks your experience is "bible". Get off your pedestal.

Could it be that my skin tone is a bit too brown to be a 'KNOW IT ALL" I've had that before...others say the same thing..but the value I bring is priceless to some, but again...many probably don't want it coming from a brown black woman...and I am surely not an angry black woman...my life is too good for that...

I am truly here to help... I've just seen so many going down a path of lap band destruction and MAYBE...JUST MAYBE some people would like to do things the RIGHT WAY with the band...and .those that want my help great and...for those who don't please ignore me and believe in the lap band fairy .LOL..

      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.
