December Bandsters in February!



Recommended Posts

Guess we're all getting into our routine and people have less questions than right after we had our surgery! :)

Ok....I have a question about Tilapia! I cooked it for dinner the other night (YUMMY btw)....but obviously couldn't finish it all b/c my 2nd fill is working so great! ;-) So...anyone know how long it keeps before you need to throw it out?? I hate to waste good fish, but I have a feeling I'm going to have to cause i just can't eat it all!

Steph, I totally overate last night, too. I've already got an appointment for a checkup/fill tomorrow, I hope they're a bit more aggressive than last time! I totally understand your frustration - I feel it, too! Grrrr..... I was hoping this would be easier!

Well it is march 1st I did not quite meet my feb goal of 20 exercise sessions I made it to 15 I couldnt go some of the time b/c of my car and the weather. It's time to make a March goal!!

Mine is going to be 10lbs off in March! This will put me in ONEderland!

I now think I have a good fill- things are getting stuck mostly b/c I eat too fast so I am working on slowing down. I am also going to count calories for a while so I will KNOW exactly where I am at cal/protein and carb wise.

So what are the March goals!?!

I'm posting this on all the December threads to try to reach everyone.

I think those of us still posting have decided it's easier to just stick with the original December bandsters thread:

http://www.lapbandtalk.com/showthread.php?t=25506

There doesn't seem to be much traffic on the monthly threads and we may be losing people with each new thread.

However, like I said before, if others want to keep the monthly threads going, I'll follow wherever you go. :)

      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.
