Hey!

I too am a 30 something (BARELY). I just turned 39 -- can't believe THAT! I live in the Boston area and I have 4 kids under 7 including a set of 5 year old twins. I run a part time curriculum enhancement business for the preschool set and we have a 9 year old pug. I have been married 8 years to the best guy ever. I've known him since he was 3 years old-- actually, I used to baby sit him. Yes, I know that sounds dirty, but it's not! So glad I got the band, and in just 4 short pounds I will be at my pre-kid weight! Go thirties1 Go thirties!

Hi!

I am 36 and Rick Springflied and most members of Duran Duran were all I lived for in the 80's! Oh and Merry Go Round for my "new wave/punk girl clothes" - thought I was so cool!

I own a pr company where we specialize in events, product launches, nonprofits, etc.

I plan on not working much after I get banded in early July. I want to make my new job working our and eating right.

I do not have any children yet, but plan on trying to get pregnant sometime next year.

I am currently cleaning out my closets and donating all of my clothes. I have been collecting a few catalogues of skinny girl clothes to use for motivation. I cannot tell you how behind the times I felt when I saw all the fabulous clothes available!

I look forward to corresponding more with y'all in the next few months!

Hi, I am 31 years old and single. I will be banded on 8/8/06. It is just time I take control of my life. After trying every thing I could think of, surgery is my last option.

My date was so close to approval that I only had one night before pre-diet. I wanted pizza hut, but it was so crowded, so I got a calzone from a local pizzaria! Not too exciting, but the best I could do on short notice.

      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.
