:D :D Happy Dance Happy Dance!!!!! I can finally weigh on a normal household scale!!! WOW!!! My BMI is under 50 I'm like

so amazed and so excited...I can't believe it!! It all seems so amazing to me!! I had no idea that the band could help me like this!!

Sure I only lost 25 lbs so far but I can't believe the difference it has made! wow! I can't even begin to imagine what it will be like in another 25 lbs from now!

I was just so excited I had to tell someone....Plus I eat so little! & I'm not hungry it's like wow...who knew? I never would of thought I could eat so little and NOT be hungry!! I ate a spring roll...took me over 20 mins to eat it and when done...I was Full!!! There I was at a restaurant and all I could eat was the spring roll! LOL

Anyway sorry to babble on but I'm just so awe struck by it all!! I'm working my way to healthy!! to being able to to the outdoor activities I want to do!! to be the healthy person I know I can be :-)

Yes...it is a great feeling...imagine what a 100 lbs less will be like...

If someone showed me, or try to tell me how little I would be eating per day, or how little I would be able to eat at any one meal, and still be as healthy and full of energy as ever, there is no way I could live like that, I would NOT believe them and start to question the validity of this whole thing....

And yet....you mention spring rolls? I don't even try to eat something like that...

Every journey starts with the first step. Twenty five lbs. is nothing to sneeze at and yes, one day you'll wake up and it will be fifty, then 75 and before you know it, you'll be actively involved in your life again and that's the bestest part of all of this.

Congratulations and welcome to the 'Loser's Club'.

B-52...I was at a Vietnamese restaurant for my Sister-en-laws birthday, I didn't know what else to eat? I'm not experienced with that type of food. I eat Thai, but that is totally different. All I could think was...it's Small...I'm pretty sure I can chew it.

Thank you Bandista & Just Watch Me

Onward to Healthy!!

      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.
