Congratulations Patti!

I'm so happy for you! I'm getting banded next Thursday (in Pa.)so I know how you feel but you were able to express it so much better than I!

This is the first time I've ever done this posting stuff so I guess I'll get better!

Good luck!

Debbie

Thanks Debbie,

Wow, so you get banded the 19th? That's wonderful. I wish you well. Just keep everyone posted on how everything goes. I am excited for you Debbie.

I can't hardly wait until they give me a date for surgery.

Don't worry about how you post. Just put down what you feel. That's what everyone else does.

If I am this gabby now, just think what I will be like when I have a million questions after banding. LOL

Did you introduce yourself in the group? If not, go ahead and let us know all about yourself.

Hugs to you,

Patti

      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.
