Hi all,

It's now 9 days since I was banded and after the initial bad start I'm feeling pretty good.

I'm staying off work this week but wondering if it's such a good idea - lots of temptations here at home as usual. In reality though I can only really eat the equivalent of two tablespoons of food before i feel uncomfortable. I used to eat that much standing at the stove before I even sat down at the table for my meal so that's something.

As for the scales - they tell me I've put 1kg back on!!!! I think I'm going to hide them so that I can't be distracted or think that it's not working.

I've pulled out all of the clothes that I've grown out of in the past 12-24 months and made sure that there are buttons where there should be (I used to pop them off regularly!) so that when they do fit I can wear them straight away. I've given away 2 more big bags of clothes that I don't want to wear ever again even if I am thinner - while I want to look like the old me - I don't want to look EXACTLY like the old me!

Glad this site is here.

see ya

Jude

[ahealthieryou 0]

Oh my gosh!!! 4 days left!!! GO, GO, GO, GO...

Good luck to all that are banded tomorrow, and the next, and the next, and the next... I will be praying for ya'll ! Keep postin', so we all know what lies ahead.

[babs0101 1]

Wow! We sure have grown!!!

[stI24nger 1]

Hi there...I think I'm going to end up being a November bandster....I won't be getting my surgery date until this Friday, so I doubt it will happen in Oct. You can take me off this list and I'll get myself on another!

[Klovermom 0]

Hi Tens! It has been 2 full weeks since Kloverdad (Dylan) and I got our bands and we are feeling so goo. I am down 10 pounds since the band (a total of 27 pound since the pre-op diet) and can now wear size 20, something I have not done in several years. Dylan is down 41 pound so far, 18 since the band. There is no more pain. We are on soft foods. For Breakfast we Fluid loaded with a cup of hot tea and an 8 oz banana Protein Shake. #0 minutes later we each ate 1 scrambled egg and 3 thin slixes of Canadian bacon, cut small. After that we felt as full as if we just downed a breakfast feast at IHOP.

We love the Unjury Protein. The unflavored is wonderful added to ordinary canned Soup, blended and heated in the microwave.

The chocolate blended with no-sugar added hot cocoa make a satisfying warm treat. Here is a holiday recipe for those who enjoy the Fall season and some of the treats out there:

PUMPKIN PROTEIN SHAKE

This is a wonderfully decadent way to get in your protein! Spicy, creamy and icy-thick.…milkshakes never had it so good!

1/4 cup pumpkin puree

1 cup skim milk or soymilk

1 scoop vanilla Protein Powder (such as Matrix Simply Vanilla)

1/2 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice (or 1/4 t. cinnamon, 1/8 t. cloves, 1/8 t. ginger)

2 tablespoons Splenda Granular

1/4 cup Cool Whip or NSA Vanilla yogurt

1 cup ice cubes

Place pumpkin, milk, protein powder, spices, Splenda, cool whip or yogurt, and ice cubes in blender container; process until slushy. Makes one Meal Replacement serving.

Per Serving: 230 Cal; 28 g Protein; 5 g Tot Fat; 13 g Carb; 1 g Fiber; 2 g Sugar; 115 mg Sodium

Best of luck to everyone in our group. Mary (Klovermom)

[Nettie 1]

I was banded on Oct. 5th, 2007. Would love to be a part of the tenacous ten group!

You and your husband are doing great! That is amazing all the weight you have lost. Where do you get that Unjury Protein powder? Thanks for the recipe. It will be nice to have a little treat over the holidays when everyone else will be stuffing themselves with all the fixins.

Julie,

How have you done since you've been banded? Are you happy with your decision? (I go in next week and have a little bit of nerves!)
