Hi All,

Babbs.....How are you doing now ? I noticed your surgery was last month and just woundered how everything was going for you now.

Jennie....How did your fill go ? What did the doctor say ?

Kelly.....Are you still working out ? My husband and I are starting our walking again on Monday. I got myself new workout shoes on vacation .

I had a nice vist with my Mom . Shopped til I dropped .

It fills so good to be back home....and my little people ( my to cats ) are really glad mama is home. :mad:

Hi pjn2005

I had my surgery Jan.22 2007, In Mexico . I would do it over again if I had to. Try not to worry, or be too nervous; You should do fine. I never had any hair loss.....well yet. I think the Hair loss you are talking about happens from the anisteia from surgery. Not every one loses their hair, only a few.

I'll be thinking of you on your surgery day.

Best of luck,

Terry

Hi Everyone,

Well yesterday I had to go get an unfill. I was so tight I was having trouble getting down Water. I hope this is the only thing wrong and I didnt slip.

I have to get my butt to the gym because my weight loss is really slowing down. When I get back from vacation I have an appointment to be refilled....about in three weeks.

Hi everyone! My name is Stephanie and I'm in Urbana. Haven't been banded yet but trying to get the ball rolling. Can't do it here at Carle b/c they are still waiting approval to become a center of excellence so will have to go to Peoria to have everything done.

      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.
