Hello from "Steeler Land"



Recommended Posts

I started my pre-op December 1, had my surgery December 6. I made it through the Holidays and am starting the New Year out 36 pounds lighter. It was easier than I anticipated. Don't miss the beer, but sure wish I could have had some shrimp. I have had no problems keeping things down. I get adjusted on January 11th and from what I hear, things change. Hopefully the Steelers will be still in the play-offs !!:clap2:

I'm sorry the Steelers aren't in The SB. Here it is I mean the Superbowl right here in Arizona where I live and I have to watch it on TV. My son is a big Steelers fan and we wish they would have made it but...............

I'm looking into getting a lapband and any info positive or negative is helpful. I'm attending a seminar this comming week and then I hope to get in to see a Doc. Good luck to you.

Had my surgery done by Dr. Quinlin at St Margarets. Also I attend a support group every third Thursday at 7:00. You should attend. Its in Hammarville. Nice to hear from a fellow Steeler fan

I'm not sure where Hammarville is located. Did you mean Harmarville? Harmarville is quite a hike for me. I live on the west side of the city. I would like to find a support group over here.

      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?

      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.
