I am 11 pounds from onederland. I can hardly believe that I will get there especially since I am battling my binge demon! She is whispering in my ear tying to get me to make poor choices since she is unable to get me to overeat! lol

Brandy, What a great name ;u). I too, have 3 more lbs to get to onderland that won't seem to budge. I have a customer holiday party I am attending on the 12th...I would love to go to it under 200, still a long way from ultimate goal(140 lbs) but I know that if I hadn't gotten banded on 10/15 I would weigh more like 233 now. I don't do well with Water intake...having a hard time getting it in whilst not drinking liquids 1-2 hrs after eating. Anyone have any tips on how to get more water in per day?

One last note...I have been trying to get a fill scheduled with Dartmouth Hitchcock for over 4 weeks now, no response yet...not sure if they are just too busy or if there is a stigma as I went to Mexico for my surgery? When I last checked the closest fill center (fill centers USA) to me was in Mt laurel NJ, I live in NH. Don't want to be that far away just in case I need to be unfilled. Anyone know a fill dr close to NH?

Thanks to all for reading and keep up the good work!

      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.
