Finally Banded



Recommended Posts

Thanks Three Gloves

I will try heat on the shoulder. I see you had your surgery done in Carmel Indiana. I was raised in Hammond and attended IU in Bloomington and now reside in the San Juan Islands north of Seattle.

Hip Hip Horray for Doty!!! :dance: :mod: :whoo: :) :cheer2: Welcome to the "other side". You are going to love it here. Like I said b4, I am proud of you!! Love your avatar and your fancy signature. Looks like your daughter was able to help you out today. Golly girl, you don't look your age at ALL. I expected your have gray hair and lots of wrinkles....meant to be a compliment.

You will be strutting your stuff in no time at all!!!

I knew I treasured your friendship for lots of reasons :P I look younger than I am, but I have a permanent appt. with Lady Clairol for sure. I got my genes from my mom who at 84 looked 64, so I thank you very much. Giggles at the grey hair....I don't do grey well!!

My daughter did everything on here for me in no time flat. I didn't know where to start. I didn't want anything on here before I was banded, but now it's out there for all to see.

I just had a Protein drink and the family is having spaghetti. Somehow, it isn't bothering me one bit. Do you suppose that is purely psychological? I'm sooooooo glad I had this done, even with the soreness. Thanks for the little "strutter". I ordered a gold necklace and earrings from QVC tonight as a gift from me to me on the banding....I treat myself well don't I? Thanks again for being there all the time for me.

Love girlfriend and God Bless,

Dody

      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.
