May 2007 Banders

[NVgirl 2]

I did want to eat the kids earlier though. Ha Ha!

Around day four of my pre-op I would have gladly traded one of my kids for a taco! And for both kids? A cheesburger!

My Mayflower friends!

I am on my second day of low carb/high protien pre-op diet and it has been tough but I have done it...2 days! I had to pass up choclate cupcakes and Goodtimes (burgers and fries), AND pizza! Grrrrr! I hope I can make it?! And what is up with the headaches??? I have had a headache all day!

[SElaine 3]

Congratulations....I am May 21st also! I am going in on the 7th to have my gall bladder out so it is going to be a crazy couple of weeks for me.

Good Luck,

Maureen

Maureen,

Good luck with your gall bladder surgery. Yikes! You are going to have a rough couple of weeks! I'll be thinking about you Monday. Keep me posted. It's great to know we will be in this together!

Hello May Bandsters!

I am counting down the days till the 11th, but am STRUGGLING with the pre-op diet (what pre-op diet??). I get so motivated when I see everyone doing their liquid diets, but I just can't bring myself to stick to it! I am being banded by Dr. Spivak, and he said to stick to a low-carb diet (can't do that either!)...he really just doesn't want me to gain weight. But I am eating stuff like mad!! HELP!! It's the TOM for me, so hopefully that is why I am craving so many things.

SO, I have officially vowed to start a liquid diet TOMORROW, and stick with it until next Friday. I have only 7 days, and I KNOW I can do it after getting inspired by everyone else here. If anyone has any encouraging words, please throw them my way. My hubby is out of town this weekend for a volleyball tournament, so I have the boys (6 & 8) by myself. We will spend all morning at the ball field, then have a baby shower to go to (complete with fajitas, cake, etc)so I am not really sure how I will do this. Maybe I'll take a cooler with some Protein drinks...I got some of the SlimFast low carb ones. Are there other ones that taste better? Or are more filling?? I heard that the Better Than Boullion is really good, so I will try that also. Oh, I hope I can do this.

I guess it goes to show that I really do need this band. I am so controlled by food...I have heard that after having the band for awhile, you don't really even think about eating. That thought is liberating to me. I cannot imagine what it will be like to not care about eating. (but it won't even compare to what it will feel like to be thinner!!!!!!!) Aren't you all EXCITED?? I am! (if I could just get through this pre-op stuff!!!) HA!

I pray for strength and healing for all those who were recently banded. Your comments are encouraging and comforting to those of us who are following close behind. And to those of us who will be banded soon...I pray most importantly for peace of mind. It is so easy to feel fearful at this point. But I KNOW we will do GREAT!!! Pretty soon we will ALL be on the "other side", and we'll be there for encouragement and support.

Blessings to all!!!

OK.... so, yesterday you vowed to start your diet TODAY. How are you doing? Did you make it through your first day?

[Mal 0]

Yeah!!! Thanks for adding me!

[JaneC 0]

I feel like a kid counting down to Christmas....I can't wait for May 26th...how many more sleeps? It can't come soon enough for me.:clap2:

[mommalee 0]

My Mayflower friends!

I am on my second day of low carb/high protien pre-op diet and it has been tough but I have done it...2 days! I had to pass up choclate cupcakes and Goodtimes (burgers and fries), AND pizza! Grrrrr! I hope I can make it?! And what is up with the headaches??? I have had a headache all day!

The headache happens to a lot of people who are on the pre-op diet. Be sure you are keeping hydrated with Water in addition to the shakes. After day three it usually gets better and I applaud you for sticking to the diet in the face of all that temptation! IF it should get overwhelming--eat a lettuce, at least its mostly water!

Jane,

Is your surgery scheduled for Saturday, May 26? I guess I mistakenly put it on May 28 on our calendar. I will add a column for Saturdays and put you on as soon as I hear from you.

Thanks,

NimbleBean

[soulful Grandma 0]

The pre-op diet is tough - 6 days in. But it's getting closer to Band-day so that is exciting.

[ragdollx19 1]

It is so good to hear from those of you who have already had your surgeries. Thanks for all the updates and keep sharing the advice!! I start my pre-op diet Thursday and just keep thinking wow this is the last time i can order anything i want off the menu and eat the whole awful thing. As much as I am dreading the pre op diet I am ready for it to be here so I can get it over with!

[kaylali 0]

So I have a weird question, because I am quite a modest person, I have just started wondering what exactly do we wear during the surgery?

I've always gone into surgery with a hospital gown on.. I guess they can do what they want with me while I'm knocked out.. draw funny faces on my tummy or something :Banane43:

Yes, it is on Saturday the 26th at noon. Sorry if I have mucked up your chart. Thanks for noticing too :Banane43:

Maureen,

Good luck with your gall bladder surgery. Yikes! You are going to have a rough couple of weeks! I'll be thinking about you Monday. Keep me posted. It's great to know we will be in this together!

Thanks....I just wish they would do them together. I have never had a problem with my gall bladder. The doc wants it out so.....I go in tomorrow. I feel like I am having a trial surgery......just to get me in the mood:eek:.

The chart is so helpful....its great to see others going through this at the same time.

Thanks for the well wishes,

2 weeks from tomorrow:clap2:
