Faybie, you totally rock for putting that together!

In other news...it is "Shark Week" for me. (time of month, i.e. just want to eat, sleep and kill) I just ate nearly and entire Tostino's pizza. You know, the little ones? Well, it wasn't that little. Where'd my lovely post-op restriction go?

I am so hungry and it sucks. I was sooo thinking I didn't need a fill. But restriction is gone - for today at least.

Kutia - Dr. Jayaseelan, Dallas TX -40 5cc (not sure if this is band size or fill)

The 5cc is my fill level. I have the Vanguard band. And tomorrow is my weigh-in day so I may have to post another update.

Faybie, it is awesome that you took the time to do this. Thanks! And our combined weight-loss total is phenomenal. Let's see how soon we can make it to the 1,000 lbs mark.

Starting over here. I haven't posted many posts here but I read every night.

Faybie,

Thank you for doing all that hard work. Could you please change my surgery date. It is listed on August 17th. But I actually had my surgery on Friday August 18th with Dr. Robert Snow in Hurst Tx.

I had my first fill in a 9.75 low profile band yesterday Sept 27th with 1 cc

I have lost 20 pounds since my surgery

Thank you so much.

I have to know... is that picture of you?

I've been dying to know.

Ha Ha no no. LOL. I wish! it is an avatar I found on the board here. It is a character from one of the Final Fantasy games, 10 I think. I am a huge gamer always have been and Final Fantasy is one of my favorite game series. I did post a partly skinny pic of me in the "what is your dream skinny clothes" in my wedding dress. That is my dream skinny outfit. I told my husband when I get to that weight, I am going to wear the dress around the house for a couple of days. LOL.

      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.
