Hi, I am so touched by this thread. Thankyou so much Mark and Fee and everybody. It is wonderful to be able to come here and share ideas and have a few laughs. Struggling with weight issues is so hard, and it helps to know that we can pick each other up and keep on walking in this battle.

I am a little anxious and scared about tomorrow morning, but I know that I have done everything possible ,physically and mentally to prepare for the surgery.

I am going to tell my surgeon that he has to revise my BMI downwards, due to my pre surgery weight loss!:rose:

Mark it is nice to hear from you. Please don't be a stranger on our chat thread. I know we are all women on it, but I would like to learn about weight issues from a man's perspective also.

I will check in as soon as I am able.

Susannah

Hi Susannah,

Great to read from the chat thread that you are now safely "in the band" - congratulations on your banding!!!

I haven't been into LBT for a while, things are very busy around my place at the moment, resulting in only limited 'puter time. I am sorry that I missed wishing you well for your big day, but really pleased to read that you are doing so well. Keep up the good work!

      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.
