hello to all,

I went to the doctor yesterday and did not get a fill. This was the first visit I have had with him that i didnt. I have lost each month, and I am at a good restriction, and I need to take responsibility for what I am eating and drinking and try and get over using this as a crutch. I have to make some clear choices if I want to continue to loose, and not eat and drink around the band.

So, kinda like starting over but not.....I am happy that my weight is still at 247 which is good since I have creaped back up in January.

I went to a store at the mall, and bought 2 sleevless sweaters in a size 16!!!!!!!!! And yes I am wearing today. I know that if I loose what I need to the next 5 months, I will be at a really decent weight, and I am very excited to say, that I am making every effort to kick my ass in gear and get that going.

I just wanted to share, and tell everyone hello.......

TX-Girl, nice to see you here!!!!!!!!!!!!

HP-Being accountable is a pain in the butt, but what else can you do? I'm sure you'll get those pounds off and see your goal. I second, "Come on Spring!!!"

BG-So that's what your hair looks like? I've only seen it in a helmet or ponytail. You're looking fantastic.

JC-I'm sending you good JUJU. "6 weeks, 6 weeks, 6 weeks"

Peace all.

Turler is C for Carol.

TracyinKS I think should be KS. We'll see if she accepts it.

I get to meet C tomorrow. Imagine that! A bunch of central Ohio LBTers are meeting at a local mall and C is driving from Northwest Ohio down for the day. Isn't that uber cool?

Thanks Daddy!!!! You will get there. You are doing such an amazing job in the short time you have been banded. Especially since it is winter time. Come summertime I think the pounds are going to be melting off of us Great Lakes Staters.

Howdy everybody!

I am soooo glad it's Friday! I am super excited about meeting J in Columbus...yes, it's totally 'uber cool'! My daughter plans on spending "like tons of money on really cool stuff" while we're there! I wish more of you were nearby to meet too!

So does anyone care if I complain a little? I'm tired of waiting for my band!!! Arrgghhhhh. I just want to get this done already! I have waited so long (like it'll be 2 years almost by the time I get it), feels like forever. I got approved a few weeks ago, but my surgeon is booked until April and it just it too far away. I wanted to be a hottie for summer! This stinks! (((heavy sigh)))

Thanks for listening! :glare:

It's is so hard to wait, but girl you'll be a hottie by summer. You'll be a bicyling babe along side the rest of us. There's enough stuff to worry about that you can influence, there's no need to stress yourself over something you can't.

April will come. Trust me, I'm counting every day with dread. My thirties end in April.

      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.
