Babs, that is wonderful. I think for me having more choices in clothes is going to be marvelous. And deadly to my pocketbook. :)

Babs, you are an inspiration to those of us in the early part of our band journey -- no, you are an inspiration, period. Congratulations!

Gosh, Babs, I don't even know how to buy clothes in regular stores. Wow, what must that be like? Lots of success going on around here. I'm worried for myself because my head hunger is a huge problem, so I'm glad I can come here and see all this hope. But a regular size clothing store? That blows me away. Congrads in a big way.

Hi Lisa,

You are doing great despite the problems you have had with your band and infections. You are right on track to lose 100 pounds or more your first year with the band. Heck, you are ahead of the curve. It feels great being able to go anywhere to buy clothes. Now if I only had the money for a new wardrobe life would be grand. But business has been slow and I am being frugal for now......!!

      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.
