Anyone who knows where the title comes from will know my fav book of all times!

Banded on March 6th and First Fill on April 4th I must say that I am very pleased with this new start despite a PB or two and one of them being a

"EPGSHFLYADV":

Excrutiatingly Painful Gagging Sliming Heaving Feels Like You're About to Die Vomitation (suggested replacement for PB, by Strawarts)

Considering all this is so new the constant positive results are very rewarding.

I have lost

31.5 lbs in 7 weeks

13.5 lbs in 1 week before WLS

18 lbs in 6 weeks since WLS

and the best of it all is that my glucose level which was high and requiring insulin and lots of meds before surgery has never been better hovering between 4 and 6

[4 to 8 mmol/L (70 to 150 mg/dL)]

Also for the first time in half a century I have been logging every bite and every minute of exercise and I average 1300 Cals and 60 mins of exercise a day.

Still have a long way to go to make it to my ideal weight but the goal seems attainable for the first time in a long time.

Just broke the hunnerd this week (100 Kilos that is, 220 Lbs) Now my next goal is to break the 2 hunnerds :) 200 lbs that is. Final Goal is 75 Kgs (165 lbs) for a "perfect" BMI of 25.

      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.
