Dongrats Emily,

That is absolutely fabulous. You should be sooooooooooo proud of yourself. 100 pounds Can you really picture how much that is. I wished I had lost 100 pounds but I'm so proud you have.

Amy, I am feeling good, hope your cold gets better fast. Please give me some ideals of something to eat besides broth and pudding, I'm ready to pull my hair out. LOL

Ok, thanks Funny for the welcome + here is my info:

My name is Katrina, I work in the wine industry in the Napa Valley. Its somewhat of a rough location for weight loss if you know what I mean, thankfully I'm not a huge drinker, and not so much of a huge eater anymore. I am a huge fan of activities, I played a lot of sports when I was younger, but have some joint issues surfacing at the ripe old age of 20. I'm 28 now, but I feel much older. This year, I got tired of the on again, off again diet pill thing, and have been thinking long and hard about long term, sustainable weight loss that I can healthfully live with. I got the band in Mexicali in late August. I'm back to working out regularly after I was a major player in one of my friend's weddings. I'm going to Hawaii in a couple of days with a really good friend of mine and I am really excited!!!

One more thing: I'm going to update my stats later this week. My scale is way different than my doc's scale and i think mine sticks. The other day it said I was 315 and I'm pretty sure I'm not. I'm (for now) going by what he said on his scale. I need more accountability for myself with my band. I need to start using it as a tool, not a crutch. I haven't had the easiest time switching back to regular food. Sooo, that's about it! Thanks for the welcome!!!

Nolagirl,

TriciaK lives out there near New Orleans. You, Jennifer28 and Tricia should make a little New Orleans Lapband support group. That would be cool.

      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.
