That's awesome! I wish I would have done the 6 month requirements. I find it still hard to get used to weighing my food and keeping track of my Protein and I'm not losing the weight I should. Not sure why...

Wish I would have chosen the sleeve... I think you will get better results...

And yes we have a monthly meeting at the oband center on Eastern off Tropicana. You have to call each month to find out the exact date for that month and sign up so they know who's coming. I hope to see you there...

Good Luck with your journey

I will. Thank you. I have gallbladder surgery on the 11th so I should be off from work still. I work as a front end manager at Smiths so my schedule is all over the place. Crazy. Lol. I will see you there.

we just all introduce ourselves and then our leader who is a psychologist goes over things that effect us in some way, we bring up issues we are having, concerns, etc. each meeting is different and unique based on who shows up and what concerns are brought up.

      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.
