May '06 Bandsters - June Chat



Recommended Posts

Thanks for the reply OU! Maybe this will prompt some more replies!

Two years is coming up quickly. Lets get on here and catch up Maysters!!

I have reached the 100 pound goal, I've held steady for quite some time now. I started working with a personal trainer this January and have lost many inches! Neat to see and feel the muscles some of which I didn't realize I had! The big 50th B'day is this July too! Oh the fun!!

Got laid off from my job last month, bummer but that just pushes me into a new direction I think.

Will be getting a brand new Grandson within the next few days... at least my very pregnant Daughter in law hopes anyway. Update: She's having labor pains as I write to tonight may be the night! Yippeee!

Still working toward my degree, hoping to have that BBA by the end of the year.

Sure hope all are well and good on this fine day.

Congrats!!:)

You have done really well. You have a lot going on and are still maintaining. That is wonderful.

I reach goal weight in February 2007 and have maintained pretty well since. By pretty well, I am about 25 pounds over where I said I wouldn't exceed, but am working to get that back off now. I am about 2 months post op from Tummy Tuck. The second best thing I have done for myself besides the band. It did wonders for my self esteem I have a link in my signature for pics. Everything else is going well.

      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.
