Hey Randy: Picture this...a gut that has no place to release the gas from carbonation...sounds like a bomb. That is what you will be making inside your body. After banding you will have more gas than you ever did before without the carbonation. You will learn to move around to allow a burp to release the pressure. Try to lessen anything that makes gas ore you may explode, or wish that you did. Good Luck Banding works but has limits. Listen to others so that you do not need to have their pain.

Hey welcome Tarami !!!!:clap2:

-------------------------

that video is great, can't wait to try it...

-------------------------

I'm still sick, getting a little better I guess , been loading up on drugs..:D

-------------------------

I guess I'm lucky, I didn't have to do the nutritionist or a physiologist with my Doc. That must mean he thinks I'm Fat and Nuts and don't need a second opinion on it..:guess.. LOL... Boy the weekend is here already and Tue will be here sooner then I think for the trip to Mex. I sure hope they have a extra long bed for me, I'm 6ft. 6in. tall and I really don't want my feet to hang off the edge of the bed all the time..later guys Ted

That's me Ted.

I'm arriving a little earlier than that. I'm actually in Florida right now for work and don't have my information with me, but I believe I get to San Diego around 10:30 a.m.

See you there.

      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.
