Lapbandit you are doing so great you were banded after me and you are doing so much better. I got to stop my weekly cheating, cut it down to maybe 2-3 times a month until I can go a whole month without sweets:faint: I'm so happy for you. You're close to Onederland. I can't even imagine Onderland right now. I'm just trying to get firmly rooted into Twoterville.:heh:

Tann, I know it's a hard road that each of us must travel but don't forget to Celebrate your successes too! You've lost 126 pounds in less than a year! Would you ever have thought that possible??? That only excites me as I'm just finishing week 2 of this journey. I've found and seen on these boards that the mental game is the toughest one to beat as far as food goes. You can do it and soon those shackles will be off and you'll be a dancing fool!!

Wow! Everyone is doing great in moving towards their goals. I've still got one pound to go and I'm hoping to get that scale moving downwards. Today's my birthday so I'm allowing myself a dinner out at a nice restaurant.

:P Ridin, I often compare myself with others who have started out with me close to the same weight as me. I must remember not to do that. Thanks for reminding me;)

Tann you are doing an AWESOME job too! You have lost an incredible amount in 2006. But, the way I look at it is...the thing that matters most at the end of the day is whether or not your happy with your efforts. If you're doing your best, then it's a total success regardless of the scale!

Happy B-Day Elizabethsew!

      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.
