May banding 2007



Recommended Posts

I don't see a thread for May 2007 yet. Or I am just blind. But yesterday I received my final approval from the insurance company. I scheduled for May 21st, because my is converting over to a new software in the first week in April and I have to be here for the full month. Little by little I am getting excited. I knew that I would be approved I just didn't know how long it was going to take. And that was the longest 2 weeks ever.

I don't remember seeing one---looks like you might get to start it!! I know April is filling up, they have quite a list of them going to be banded in April. I am an April 06 bander, so we have been in touch with the April 07-ers!

I bet you will be shocked how they start popping up with May dates---you won't be alone for long!

Congrats on getting your date! And welcome to LBT!!! This will be one of the best things you have ever done for yourself!!!

I hope April and May go by fast. I turn 40 on the 11th of April, so this is a pretty good birthday present. I told my husband tonight "just think you are going to married to a new women" My whole family is very excited. I am just ready to feel better.

the Specialty Surgery Center of Fort Worth on Precinct Line in Hurst across from Wal Mart does fills with flouro. I am not sure if they have issues with patients banded in Mexico but give them a call. Or call AIGB in the same building and ask them.

Good luck!

      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.
