Thank you all so much !!!!! You are all such sweet ladies!!! :D

You know, sometimes I really have to remember that the scale is not the be all end all in our journey. I went through it for a minute and was tripping over the scale because it was being so stubborn for weeks... but yes - I have compared this months pics with last months and there is a good difference. I just have to trust in the system and my sleeve - and most of all MYSELF!!!

I did need to make some adjustments and I do believe I have found the problems and I'm working on them as we speak. Today was my weigh in day with my Wii. It said I'm 230 exactly now. It usually registers a pound or two heavier than my Taylor scale - but because I do my weigh-in in the evening. I'm always up a pound or two by the night. I do not consider this an official weigh in - I just like to use it as a second reference and a pre-cursor to my Wednesday weigh-in. Also to know if I need to work harder for the next few days. It said I'm down 4 Lbs since my last Sunday weigh-in... so hooooorayyyy!!!

Rock on sisters!!!!

Thank you so much genepha. I cannot stress how much more my life is improved with getting my revision surgery. I truly am living the life I though I was going to have with my Lap Band. I'm so happy!!!

Let me know how you progress in your journey! I'm always interested to know how other revisioners are doing. :)

      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.
