May 2007 Banders



Recommended Posts

I can understand the principle issues. I am so upset with insureance. They are just like a Home warrenty, they would pay for preventative measures, but once you or your house is broken, they will pay more to have ti fixed. Don't make sence. And we wonder why cost keep going up. It's a scam. That's why I am self pay.. it will cost so much more, but it's on my terms and I wont have to worry about all the other health issues and meds in the future.

Good Lick with your journey.

I love the chart! There are so many of us. This is going to be good. I met someone tonight at the scrapbook store that had bypass two weeks ago from my doctors partner. She had nothing but good to say about it. I told her I was doing the band. She said to make sure and set a timer to be sure and drink the Water they tell us to. I think it is an ounce every 15 minutes? Not quite sure how that will go over with me at the gym??

I was think of making a journal to jot down my thoughts and emotions every day or so. I was going to put fat pictures in it to keep me motivated. As well as clippings from ads of the outfits I would like to wear. A list of all the reasons I would like to lose 100lbs.

Such as:

1. to be able to bend over and tie my shoes and breath at the same time

2. to lose my apron (if you know what I mean, say Amen)

3. to stop giving Lane Bryant so much money

4. to be active with my kids

5. to feel like being more "active" with my husband

6. to set a better example for my kids

7. to not always be the largest person in the room

8. so all of my pant will no longer have those lovely worn spots where my thighs rub

9. To wear a skirt and not get a rash on my thighs

Feel free to add to my list. That might be encouraging to read when we are having a hard time sticking to pre-op diets. I meet with the nutricionist on tuesday to start mine. I plan on painting a few rooms in my house to keep myself busy. Heck as much as I think about food, maybe I will paint the whole house!

Twimmommy... AMEN!

to add to the list:

*be able to cross my legs

*be able to pass by someone and not feel like my huge @ss is gonna knock them over

*wear "cute" undies again... shop at Victoria's Secret again!

.... I'm sure I'll think of more....

...Speaking of Lane Bryant... which, I love and I'm sure has provided all of us stylish, nice clothing.... I passed by the Lane Bryant in our local mall..and there was a sign outside saying "Ranked number one in sales for the year 2006"..which, if you think about it... its kinda sad.

Nimble - I am a HOPING to be banded in May - before my birthday at the end of the month. I have submitted my paperwork but not word from insurance yet. You have me listed at the 4th - and although that would be great, it isn't my date. ;)(

Okay, so my surgery is in four days and lo-and-behold, my best friend had to have an abrupt c-section (baby and mom are okay), and I just found out my Grandfather has colon cancer...he had to have emergency surgery last Thursday. My Liquid Protein diet was supposed to start on last Wednesday, but I didn't get to start until Friday because of all the hospital stuff. My surgeon was okay with that, but I was a little disappointed because I wanted to do everything JUST right. I actually haven't been nearly as sick as I thought I would be and I never thought chicken broth could taste sooooo good:) I needed to check in with everyone because life has been crazy and I haven't been on here lately. I love the calendar.....everyone is sooo close! Good luck everyone.

A list of all the reasons I would like to lose 100 lbs.

1. to be able to bend over and tie my shoes and breath at the same time

2. to lose my apron (if you know what I mean, say Amen)

3. to stop giving Lane Bryant so much money

4. to be active with my kids

5. to feel like being more "active" with my husband

6. to set a better example for my kids

7. to not always be the largest person in the room

8. so all of my pant will no longer have those lovely worn spots where my thighs rub

9. To wear a skirt and not get a rash on my thighs

10. to be able to cross my legs

11. to be able to pass by someone and not feel like my huge @ss is gonna knock them over

12. to wear "cute" undies again... shop at Victoria's Secret again!

Please feel free to add to the list! Thanks Melissa O! I know exactly what you mean.

Okay, so my surgery is in four days and lo-and-behold, my best friend had to have an abrupt c-section (baby and mom are okay), and I just found out my Grandfather has colon cancer...he had to have emergency surgery last Thursday. My liquid Protein diet was supposed to start on last Wednesday, but I didn't get to start until Friday because of all the hospital stuff. My surgeon was okay with that, but I was a little disappointed because I wanted to do everything JUST right. I actually haven't been nearly as sick as I thought I would be and I never thought chicken broth could taste sooooo good:) I needed to check in with everyone because life has been crazy and I haven't been on here lately. I love the calendar.....everyone is sooo close! Good luck everyone.

May 3rd is just around the corner--my band date also. It doesnt seem real somehow! Im sorry to hear about your grandfather. Let us know how he does....

I had the craziest dream last night!:notagree I was dreaming that I was brushing my hair and found I had hundreds of headlice:omg: and was desperately trying to get some Shampoo that kills them. Then I was dreaming that I overslept and was 4 hours late for my surgery and the nurses were mad :angryand told me I couldnt have it and would have to wait.:think I can understand the lap band surgery dream--but the headlice dream is a mystery....;)

Hey May 3 banders.... Only four more days--are we ready or what?!:clap2:

So sorry to hear about your grandfather!!! We will never be able to do everything perfect so don't take that stress with you to your surgery. It seems just when we get everything going the direction we want then the real life goes and takes us off course.

You are so close to getting on track for the weight loss journey that you are choosing to go on. You will do Awsome and I will be praying for you, and your grandfather. Keep us posted

      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.
