June 2007 Bandsters

[insubordination 0]

ETA (I only get smiley icons when I try to edit). Toni, we do have different dates after all. Mine was pushed back to June 6 because of work and finance issues. However, will be with you in spirit.

PS Calendar Girl, can you change my banding date from May 28 to June 6?

Hi, Put me on the calendar for June 18, 2007. Can't wait!!

[Suzzzie. 3]

I look at this calander and am so frustrated that I don't have my date yet! I didn't get a chance to call the surgery center before 'end of business' and I will be in Las Vegas all next week...so if they don't call me next week I'll be bugging them first thing Monday June 4th!! Its killing me. Literally! I want so badly to start the pre op diet (mine is only 48 hours though!) because right now I keep thinking of foods that I won;t be able to eat for a very very long time...and food that I will never be able to eat again, cause I only eat them when I binge - like ice cream (which I just ate almost a whole 1/2 gallon of!!!) - I need to get a GRIP! I'm having anxiety about not being able to binge eat anymore. How sad is that? Does anyone else miss the IDEA of eating until they pop?

OK, so I'm crazy, I know. Food is all psychological for me. It makes me happy and it is my friend. I just feel sad that I won't have it anymore... and yet I am SOOOOOOOO ready to give it up and start a NEW HEALTHY life!!

Anyone else have these thoughts/feelings? Or am I losing it?

[Cblancha9 0]

My date is June 19, 2007. Thanks for posting the calendar. I'm so glad to have this support group. I really need all of you.

[insubordination 0]

We need you too (when you're 64) blancha. :grouphug:Congrats on your date.

I need to get a GRIP! I'm having anxiety about not being able to binge eat anymore. How sad is that? Does anyone else miss the IDEA of eating until they pop?

Sadly, yes. I love to eat as much as I want of whatever I want:hungry: and I will miss my Friday Thai takeaway. That's why I need a band. I know I will go through withdrawals but I'm much encouraged by some bandsters here who say that their relationship with food has changed for the better. Have fun in Vegas. I know how frustrating waiting for a date is but it will come and the time will pass. It always does.

Thanks for updating the calendar HoddyTotty. I sincerely hope we'll all be here this time next year (only much slimmer and healthier). The June 06 bandsters are still going strong.

Has anyone tried whey Protein by Body Fortress? Walmart sells it and the Nutritionist said that was a good one. It is delicious! I found it in vanilla and chocolate. Cost is about $11.00. I use 6oz of skim milk and 1 scoop of powder and a glass of ice cubes. Blend and enjoy. I've also order Unjury and it's good also. They have a powdered chicken broth and a unflavored kind. It can be added to anything in order to get the protein you need.

Still working through the liquid diet. I have managed to follow it except for the number of times per day that the doctor wants me to have shakes. The surgical group that my doctor is in asks all patients to lose 10% of their weight before surgery. I am scared that I am not going to be able to do that and that they will tell me they can't do the surgery. I am also having side and back pain and am worried that something else is wrong and it will delay my surgery also. The doctors are so booked that if I had to changed my surgery date it would be months before I could get another date.

Day 2 of Clear Liquids and I'm still alive... barely! No, I'm kidding.. I did discover a few things last night. I bought lite juice, sugar free popsicles, and sugar free Jello. I read my doctors clear liquid diet last night and it says nothing about all that stuff being sugar free this week. Basicially, unless I sip on sweet tea all day there's no way I'm going to get enough calories! My sample diet says 600 cal per day... well, broth only has a few and the sugar free stuff even less! I guess I gotta go shopping again... very frustrating!

Suzzzie... I'm so sorry for what you're going through. I know you're anxious about a date. I made a post a few pages back that expressed what you are feeling. I am a binge eater as well. I will miss it so much, but I hope I will love how I look 10 times more!! I'm just trying to remember that food has been a false friend for me... the comfort it provides lasts about 10 minutes but the damage, a lifetime! I totally understand how you feel and am glad to hear someone else is like me!

Cblancha - thanks for the Protein tips! That has been what's most confusing for me! I read on here about a product called "any whey" that is also unflavored that you sprinkle in regular food. Is the Unjury unflavored really unflavored? Can you taste it at all?

Sorry so long! Reality has arrived!! Surgery in 6 days! Oh well, I'm off to have some jello!

Good morning

insub- I to appreciated all the pre opt tests I took this week. The lead Nurse Practitioner called me yesterday at 5, when I was leaving from work, I was worried as to what they found. She asked about my gallblatter because my billiruben( not sure spelling) was something?? She asked of symptoms, which I have none. She said she would talk to the doctor Tuesday. Any ideas from folks if this put a stop to surgery. I feel like, take that out too, maybe it weighs something! Also I am anemic, need to take my vitamens, which I knew.

This weekend was my first one on the preopt. Not having my glass of wine, salsa and chips or going out to dinner, was hard, but I did fine. I just have to get through the weekends which will be the most difficult, but maybe I will see how I need to change my patterns.

Suzzzie- Hang in there! The time will come. Don't give up. I know how frustrating that wait can be. I think the surgical coordinator hated receiving my emails, which I sent asking her questions, etc. Hope your weekend went well!

Janine

Heather and others,

This is a posting technical question. How do you put those strips at the bottom, you all have different ones; train ride, hearts, flowers, posting your bmi and weight progress? I would like to add that but can't figure it out.

Help!

Janine,

go to tickerfactory.com. At the bottom select the ticker for weight loss (it should be the top option in the left column).

You will then choose the line part (train track, chain of hearts, musical scale, etc.) There are several pages to choose from. Then hit next and you will choose the part that moves (train, fish, etc...) At the end you will add your height and weight and desired ending weight.

This is the tricky part...

After you generate the code. Choose the first one called "bbcode". Copy and paste that entire code in your signature box... under where you have "Janine" then hit preview. It should be there! It took me forever to figure out how to post it in my signature because there are so many weird options at the edit signature page!!!

When you get ready to make changes (on weigh day) just go to any post where your ticker is and click on it. It will take you to the site!

This is long... hope it helps!

Janine...you crack me up...thanks for that this morning!

I am going to miss my favorite binge foods, too!:hungry: That's why I'm so glad we have each other for support and commiseration (is that a WORD?!?)

Just wanted to fly in and say good morning and thank Janine for the chuckle!

Had a date of May 31. Surgeon's office called me when I was in waiting room for pre-op physical to see if I could do May 29. However my doc thinks that to be extra safe I should have a stress echocardiogram before surgery, so my new date is June 4.

My doc was afraid that I would be angry about the delay but I said that a delay was far better than going into cardiac arrest on the table ! I have no history or family history of heart problems but I have been too sedentary due to severe back problems that make my legs weak and extremely painful. Apparently going under anesthesia is very hard on the heart.

I'm having my surgery at Good Samaritan Hospital in Cincinnati. The 2-week pre-op diet is unjury Protein plus a few solids --one fruit, 1/2 cup oatmeal, salads, and raw vegetables (last chance for "crunch" for a long time!!). I had lost 20.6 pounds on my own from initial consultation to surgical consent meeting so I initially going to be required to do the pre-surgery diet for 5-7 days.

Does anyone know--does the Liquid Protein diet reduce the fat around the liver more effectively than the same calories in a more solid diet?
