Way to go all of you. Everyone seems to be doing great. Here is my questiion. I was banded on Aug.20th 2007. I am doing ok, I have lost 27.5# since the end of May and including my preop diet. I just went and purchased a 26" Ladies Mountain Bike. When will it be ok to start to ride it. I walk around the house and stuff now, and went out with my BF and shopped today. Just wondering how long before I can ride a bike? Any and all input would be great.

I would say wait at least 1 week for banding. When i went to my 1 week checkup doc said as long as i feel ok then go ahead and exercise. Every doc is different.

No stomach exercises for a while though.

And i am waiting a few weeks before i lift some weights again.

Bottom line......ask your Doctor.

      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.
