You do look great. I love that this board has so many success stories. It gives me motivation.

I remember I first became a member of this forum because I wanted to read all the stories I could before I was banded

Glad to see you posting again. I was pretty new when I found this site and your posts were very encouraging. FYI I'm now banded ten months and down 90 or so pounds and have met the most important goal of all which was double hip replacement. I hope to be able to move and walk pain free shortly. Again.. welcome back.

I feel we are kindred spirits. I've been banded 13mths and down 103 lbs. I too reached my most important goal, double knee replacements. It's been 3mths on lt knee & 2mths on rt knee. I'm walking close to 3 miles every day, was unable to walk 60' before banding & replacements.

Still a bit tender, but have to keep moving.

Wishing you a speedy recovery!

      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.
