Normally, I read and lurk, today I thought I'd share my news.

I got my approval from Aetna this wk --1st submission, so my date is confirmed for September 21, 2007!! I started the liquid diet today & had my meeting w/ the anethesiologist. I thought I was prepared for this part -- I bought Protein, my magic bullet, etc, but today has been more difficult than I thought. But, I am really looking forward to being banded.

This board has been so helpful for me, in making the decision, what to expect, problems, successes, recipes -- everything. I thank you all.

So far I am 8 days post op and feeling good! Today has been the best day by far. I can almost reach my toes again (soreness in stomach is going away).

I started on mushies today, had mashed potatoes for dinner. They were delightful. However, I can eat a cup before I get full. I think it's already time for a fill!

Good luck to all the rest of the september banders!!

      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.
