My band was eroded for almost 2 years. No one seemed to see it on my scans then they finally did a EGD and seen it was pretty bad. I had a huge hole in my stomache with infection, so I had to wait for it to heal.

So today I went to see the surgeon for my final weigh in before surgery. I lost 11 pds in 10 days. They discussed everything that will go on. They told me they are going to be putting in a pain pump and I go home with it, until the following Monday. I think this is going to be a breeze for me. At first I was scared. But now I fel pretty confident that it will be OK. When do you go for your final weigh in and instructions for surgery. Lisa. (that is my real name)

      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.
