Hi My name is Melissa and I live in Texas. I am getting my band on Friday Feb 5 2010. I am at 332 lbs currently and have a BMI of 57.

I want to hear anything anybody wants to tell me! ;)

Who better to ask than those who have gone before me? :thumbup:

My surgery will be done by Dr. Rincon in San Antonio.

I did all my pre-op stuff on 1/5/10 and have lost 6 lbs so far. I started out at 338 and Im practicing now for the pre-op diet.

So please reply!

tmg, congrats on your weightloss! I just wanted you to know, I came across your blog post about overfills ( it was a while ago). It was very eye opening to me. I have not gotten to point of restriction yet, but am very cautious of being too tight. You should continue your blogging, you had some great posts !

I'm still on full liquids/purees post-op.

Yesterday I had:

B: 1 scoop Inspire Dutch chocolate Cake Protein Powder w/4 oz. Water

L: 3 tablespoons of a combo of browned/pureed ground beef, ricotta cheese, a dab of marinara, and a sprinkle of Parmesan--VERY good!

S: sugar-free popsicles

D: double-scoop Inspire Dutch chocolate cake Protein mixed with 8 oz. unsweetened Almond Breeze almond milk--DEELISH.

Today is likely to be pretty much the same. I started with the chocolate protein/Almond Breeze (60 g protein already for the day), and will stick with the ricotta/marinara for lunch. For dinner, I plan to grill a half chicken breast and puree with hoisin and other Asian seasonings.

      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.
