Hi guys,

I was banded a week ago today. I will begin walking at the Summit place mall on next Monday. If anyone lives in the Pontiac/Waterford area I would like to hear from you. I am trying to start a morning walking group.

Thanks, M yess

M Yess, If you would consider walking after 3PM I would love to go with you. I live in Davisburg. However I may need to wait 3 more weeks as I have a stress fx on my left foot. Too much walking is not good for it at this time.

Hi, this is my first post. I live in White Lake, I had the band put on mid May. I've only lost 30 lbs. I need to get off my butt and excercise.

Let me know when you go to Summit Mall, (is there anything left there?)

Hi,

My name is Joyce. I got the band June 25, about a month after you. Lost about 10 pounds so far. I love to walk outside in the fresh air so the Summit Mall is not appealing to me, perhaps when it is colder it will. I live in Twin Lakes Sub. It is south of M59 and just east of Walmart/HomeDepot between Fisk Rd. and Pontiac Lake Rd. My sub offers a wonderful 2.10 mile walk that I do daily. It takes about 45 minutes to walk all away around the lake, all paved. If you would like to join me give me a call. 248-698-9567. I am a stay at home mom with my youngest who just started the 10th grade last week.

looking forward to hearing from you

      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.
