Thanks Vivian, I Live in Greenville. It would be great to be around other people that have been banded. Its about a 2hr drive, but I think it would be worth the trip.~Betty

Hi Vivian-

I am new to Lapbandtalk.com and not very computer savvy! I am also a devoted patient of Dr. Carroll's. I have lost 82 lbs since 9-16-07, but have been at a stand-still for about a month. I go back to see Dr. Carroll on June 16 and hope he will give me a fill. Do you find that he is pretty conservative when it comes to fills? I hope to come to the support meeting, but I may have to wait until baseball season is over. I want to hear about you. Thanks.

      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.
