Hi, I'm Lisa and new to the board. I am looking into getting banded at the Surgical Weightloss Centre in Mississauga. I saw this thread and thought I would post.

I have two dachshunds, Pogo & Pixel

We continue to live with the horrible Little Orange, our stray and a most ungrateful and destructive animal. If I wasn't an atheist I would be inclined to think that this had something to do with Karma but I know that we are on the sucker end of our own kindness and of dumb bad luck. A number of people we know have taken in really nice animals. We have Little Orange. She is a special animal and she has special needs. She is not picky about her food, though, and that is a good thing, isn't it?

Ok, I have to do it... this thread being brought back up is a sign!

I just got 2 kittens from the SPCA on friday... got a 'it's kind of ok' from our landlord, so we ran with it.

The grey and white one is mine and her name is Muffin. The black and white one is Pan, and Dan named her that after a character in a book we just read. They're both girls... we wanted boys cause they're cheaper to 'fix', but oh well... we fell in love, what can ya do.

I loooove cats so much, and I'm so happy to have one (two) again. I know it's going to make moving and finding another apartment difficult, but... I'm prepared to deal with that!

Argon they are just too cute? You are really doing great with your final few pounds. Any news on a date yet. Are you still planning to move to BC. I just inherited 2 black 5 year old miniature poodles. They are very cute and look like an oreo cookie when my 12 year old Bichon Friise is in the middle. I will get my daughter to take some pics and post them soon.

The kittens are just too cute! I want another, nicer cat but I am afraid that the terrible Little Orange will beat the crap out of it. Congratulations on the kitties and on your weight loss!

Yes we have a Beagle, Bonnie Lou. She is our baby. Then we have 4 cats, Precious Kitty, yellow cat, cocoa and maxine. I rarely see Maxine. She is the newie, although we have had her about 2 years. She stays under the porch. When she comes out Precious trys to whip her but. Our Beagle thinks she is a cat. In fact Cocoa will lay beside Bonnie and bath her like she is a cat. Bonnie just lays there and loves every minute of it.

      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.
