6 months pics of the Junies (June 07 Bandsters)



Recommended Posts

Simply Me,

Thanks for replying. The reason I asked is because I'm 5`8 @ 215 and have been turned down by a couple of Dr.'s for not having a high enough BMI. Although, I did find another Dr. today who will do my surgery. But of course it will have to be self pay which I expected.

Yep! I was self-pay! Best money spent in a long time! Absolutely no regrets! Good luck. Let me know how it goes!

Hello to all:

I was banded June 01/07 in Toronto and thought I would share my pics with you.

The first one was taken at my highest weight 3 months before surgery and the second one was taken on my 6 month anniversary of my banding. Celebrated on a cruise ship (I'm the one in the middle):whoo:

Thank you everyone for your kind words, they are inspirational. We are all winners since we have all taken that very first scary step of getting banded. And for those of you who have posted their pics....WOW to all of you. We are one bunch of great looking people.

Ja9va - I am not at one year yet. I'm just over my 6 month anniversary. As Tony The Tiger used to say I feel g-r-r-r-e-a-t!

      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.
