Hehehe, I have a mid-month to end goal, as I only got banded on the 14th!

To get under 300 and never see thsoe hellish days again!!

However, I wont know my progress for some time, as I don't have a scale...

But once I return home, I can grab mine from there.

Yoda and Mr. Yoda congrats on the tattoos!!!

I have one so far(symbolizing my moving farrr away from home)

I plan to get one at the end of my weightloss journy

Hopefully 'gross and icky stage'(as I like to call the peeling) has ended for both of you and your left with masterpieces!

Mid June - is anyone reaching their goal set for the month?

I am hoping to meet my goals. I have had a tough couple of weeks with this last fill. I went to 6CC, that was too tight so I went in a week later to get .5CC taken out, It feels better, but I am going in tonight to have them take out another .5cc. I am still too tight and not able to eat as much hard prtotiens, and I have been relying on softer foods, which I dont think is good.

I am hoping that when I see Dr.C when he is in town that we can add back .2 or .3CC. I am right around restriction and I am sure it is somewhere between 5.0 & 5.5CC. It just sucks having too much restriction and not feeling well.

Sorry to hear you weren't feeling well Andrew. I hope that when you see Dr. Cobourn he will adjust you and it will be smooth sailing!

I am hoping to come down to see him this weekend too! I think it is great that he is doing this for his pateints especially since he is giving up golf time! lol

Hi Leslielee: I have read posts, where scrambled eggs can be a bit stringy and could cause problems. Have you considered a poached egg? Doddie

I am doing okay, but I felt alot better at 5CC. Right now I am just really bagged and I am having a tough time getting through my workouts. I drank a bunch of wine yesterday & that opened me up a little so I was able to have some pretty good meals yesterday. I dont know if I am getting enough calories with the current restriction.

I am actually going tonight to get .5CC taken out. I thought I could hold out until I see Dr.C on the 25th but I cant take the discomfort anymore. I hate having to pay the $100 each time but I need to get some taken out.

      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.
