Recommended Posts

Hello. I had the band on Feb 27 2015. Is there anyone from Aurora or close by that would like to chat it would be great. I have lost 15lbs in one week. I'm so excited can wait for spring. I'll be out this year, smelling the flowers, watching the birds and taking my dogs out for a walk. I started 245lbs. We'll talk to you later

I had my surgery Feb 2 2015 and lost 25 lb in the first 2 weeks but gained everything back. I don't think the band works at all it doesn't stop me from eating and I don't throw up if I over eat I may get a stomach ache that's about it. I live in new Chicago

      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.
