<p>Aloha All</p> <p>Thought I would never get to post this, but here I am 100 Lbs. post op. Was banded in July 2007, and what a difference 100 Lbs. can make. I can ride on airplanes without using my seat belt extender, even on the small planes. Can get a good nights sleep, without feeling like I'm going to choke to death. And did I mention how much better the sex is? Christmas Day was the best, decided it was time to get out the "Green Hornet" (my bike) and clean it up and see if I could still ride. Use to ride a lot 10 years ago (6000 miles a year) well after checking everything over it got on and rode around the hood and my DSW said that it would be cool if we could ride together, so got one of the old bike's out cleaned it up and off we went on a 5 five very easy all flat ground ride. It felt so good to be back on the "Green Hornet" and my wife had a great time also. Well I know I've gone on too long, just very excited about my new life, did I mention how much better the sex is? LOL Well Aloha and take care and good luck</p> <p>BWD</p> <p>PS I love my band, and did I mention how good the sex is?<img src="http://www.LapBandTalk.com/images/smilies/clap2.gif" border="0" alt="" title="Clap2" smilieid="217" class="inlineimg" /></p>

Wow! Congratulations Dave. I was banded end of July and hope to hit 100 pounds by end of January.

I can appreciate how good it must feel to have 100 pounds off because 90 pounds off feels pretty good too.

Congratulations.

Congrats Dave! I know that fresh Hawaiian air really helps too. Been to Kauai 3 years in a row and trust me, I know if I were 100lbs lighter when I was there I would have been a maniac!!!!

Aloha

Up every morning @ 4:30am in the gym by 5:00am. 45 min. on the Bike and then the weights. My DSW and I do this 5-6 days a week, we both have the band and that really helps. We really watch what we eat. Thats about it, good luck and best wishes.

Aloha

BWD

      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.
