Had teal before, but washed out quickly.

Yeah, same with my blue.

Since you had a band (and, I believe, WASabubblebutt) and got sleeved after, which one would you go with now that you've had both, if you could choose again.

I didn't have a band so I'm not a good person to ask. Obviously I picked the sleeve instead. :) The main thing is you have to be willing to have a permanent change to your anatomy. It took me a while to get to that point. Before that I was "band all the way!"

Happy Bandiversary Luluc!

Any words of wisdom, reflections over the past year, how you felt when you first started vs. how you feel now and looking back?

Happy Bandiversary, Luluc!!

SNT, woo hoo, it is almost time girl!!! I am so excited for you.

As for belly pictures, I have to agree, it cracks me up when I sign on and there they are for all the world to see.

Lastly, I just feel the need to say that I work with a bunch of blooming idiots.

As much as I would love to say that caffeine doesn't make me bitchy, it does. It just makes me want to yell at every stupid person on the planet. For example, I just saw that DDS's post about how the band sucks...blah, blah, freaking blah. He doesn't realize what grammar really is, apparently, and...guh. I could go on, but I will spare any rep he actually has...

Screw my utter need for caffeine to study...

...and I digress. haha.

      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.
