How about December BEFORE Pics?



Recommended Posts

Hi Christa, I should be getting my band in December too but I don't have an exact date yet. I got my gall bladder out 2 days ago so now they have to schedule my lap band surgery. Nice to meet you. Looking forward to seeing your progress.

I hope the gall bladder heals quickly .. . so you can move on to Band Land too! Sorry the pictures were so big . . . still working on that. Maybe a tech type person can give me some hints lol

Well, I haven't had the nerve to take some of those really scary pictures yet. DH says we will but I might have the camera broken by then.

I did however find a few pics from the last couple of months that someone had managed to snap before I could do my usual, "Oh no, you get in the picture, I'd love to take it." I wish I could say it was just the coat or the sweater, but in honesty they are both rather thin. It's all me.

*sighs* That would be why I'm having this craziness performed on Thursday!

I guess not. I'll have to do some more looking to try to figure out what I did wrong. Anyone with any brilliant instructions, I would appreciate them.

      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.
