1 Year Band Anniversary



Recommended Posts

Hey Everyone...

Tdy is my 1 year mark..I just got back from my doctors office and i lost another 5.5 lbs for a total for year one of 77.5 lbs.. I am soo excited!

I have to say that its been a rough year.. between family issues, Death in family, Moving, etc that i am very proud of what i accomplished. I love my BAND and wouldn't change anything for the world.

I am going to get my eyebrow pierced tonight :) as a reward for doing so well..

Thanks for all the support...

Kristen

You are doing fabulous, it must be really exciting for you. I am sorry you had such a stressful year and hope things go better for you this year. Eyebrow piercing, I would be scared it would hurt. However, I have thought about when I reach my goal weight, if I have a tt and get a sexy belly it might be cool to get my belly button pierced. When I lose 50 pounds I want to get a new tattoo. I think giving ourselves rewards like these are great and give us something else to look forward to.

      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.
