This was on my Marchies thread.

This is what I posted:

"I'm gay and I'm losing weight pretty well."

Snotty?

HAHAHAHA!! Again Juli, you've turned another otherwise sucky day around for me!

awe shucks.

At first I was going to ask what he was sucking that was making him gay and keeping the weight from falling off, but that was obtuse.

Then I was going to say all the sex with my girlfriend is helping me lose the weight...but then he'd want to watch, because you know, that's how we lesbians like it. With some hairy man looking on....

glad to make you giggle.

Oh my Juli, you just about made me pee my panties on that last one.

That doesn't sound like a very good way to lose weight! :rolleyes

Looks like this room is getting very lively. Lately, I have been busy trying to get lots of work done and behave around food. I have obtained a new general doctor and after running some tests he has taken me off of all my meds, which is great. I am looking forward to going to Dr. Grossbard on the 17th to see if I will get my first fill or not.

Getting off of meds is FANTASTIC!

As a person who didn't get a fill until 5 months after my band was put on, I'd say if you're losing well, hold off.

I don't know if you are soliciting advice. I just like to give it!

Awesome job though.

so my incisions... i've got 5. and none of them are bandaged. 2 are about a 1/2 inch, 1's 1inch, 1 is two inches and 1 is about 2 1/2 inches. i can't figure out which one is my port. hehehe. i know i'm a dork. :) well thats my update for now. my meds are kickin in again and have to go to sleep!

Girl, you shall henceforth be known as SuperBandster! I don't know of anyone who's posted so soon after surgery! I may or may not be watching the forum this weekend (RV trip) but I have no doubt you'll be posting several updates over the next few days. :biggrin1: I'll be looking forward to reading them.

Chris -- I'm obsessed with tax write-offs! Trust me, all of my expenses will be submitted to the IRS for a return!

Juli -- I love you, your response to the "gay" post was perfect.

Thanks! As for the advice, I listen to everything because this is a new experience for me. I am guessing I might get a fill because I have stopped losing weight now that I can eat again.

      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.
