Hi Crazy Ates Brothers & Sisters!

It's been 3 months.....just wanted to check and see who is still checking in regularly!!! Just wanted to get a sense of who might be checking in and not "talking" much. My schedule has been a bit intense lately so I find that I check in but I don't chime in.

This is a great group and I want to make sure that we are sticking it out together!!!!

Even if you're pressed for time.....please pop in and say HI!!!!

Judi

I am doing great. A little tight, but, glad I am, because I need to change some behaviours. Really surprised at how much stress affects my band.

I'm still here too. I just added up the weight loss for me and everyone who has posted on this thread before me. 538.5 pounds lost all together. When the rest of the Crazy Ates post I predict we will have lost over a ton of weight! Keep it up everybody. Changing your life is really hard, but we are doing it.

OK, so there was some kind of fluke that kept me from getting my second fill when I should have. I had my first one in mid-Sept. and the second on 11/7. I had called at the beginning of Oct. when I knew I didn't have restriction and she said they were booked until 11/7! WEll, come to find out, Dr. took a week off and then the nurse took a week off making two weeks out of October impossible to get a fill. So I was in the first stage for a long time. These people at the fill place aren't real friendly so as soon as I get my two fills that I have already paid for I will be going somewhere else. I want to email my nurse and tell her about them but I think I might wait until I am done there. This past week I got a rather big fillfor number two but seeming how I was supposed to be on number 3 I hope it catches up with me!

I have only lost 17 pounds and that alone without the grouchy people is frustrating enough.

Keeping fingers crossed that this one works!

Hi! I am still here. I was just out of town this week. Everyone seems to be doing amazing.

pigsrflying - I agree about grouchy people, but just think, it is 17 pounds without restriction. Imagine what it will be with restriction! Good luck.

TexasBecky - Wow that is a lot of weight for just a few people. We really are doing great. You can at 48 pounds to that for me!

      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.
