I've been a slow loser. I was having some trouble in the beginning but getting better. I'm so close to the green zone I can taste it! I've lost about 65lbs so far.... not great, but at least its coming off.

65 pounds is great. I wouldn't put yourself down like that. I'm barely at 30 but I'm taking that 30 and running with it. Lol. Anything is better then not losing or gaining. Stay positive. Hopefully it don't take me long to reach the green zone.

30lbs is fantastic for month out! I hope you don't have to wait long either :)

I still feel like a "newbie" trying to figure things out. Lol

Thanks. The thing I hate the most is that I can't do a full workout at the gym.

I honestly havent done any excersize i keep saying im gonna start but never do

Yea I told myself if I'm going to do this I need to sign up for a gym. If not there's no use getting this band. I have to do my part in the weight loss as well. The band isn't going to do all the work. So I took my butt to a gym. Lol. I love the gym now.

      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.
