You have to know that caloires do count even with this help we have in the band. You need to walk. Its not easy it is work. But it is worth it.

Who did the banding: Dr. Lusco

Where was it done :Cartias Hosptail in Louisville Ky

My starting weight was: 290lbs

My weight now is: 190lbs

I need to lose: 30lbs

I have todate 2 1/2 cc

I have no complants so far and would do it again.

How do I get the measure on the bottom of my page.

Hey, Peg leg: You were banded the day after me. OK the comparison thingy mentioned in the Homework thread comes into play now.

Banded 1 day apart.

I weighed 6 lbs more at the beginning.

Peg lost 100lbs

I have lost 56lbs.

Everyone is different. STOP comparing yourselves guys.

      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.
