I really needed to hear your story. I'm having the surgery in about 6 weeks! I'm nervous but very excited. I've battled weight my whole life and I'm really ready to do it this time!! Thanks for the confidence in what I know will work!

I started out at about a 1/2 hour per day. I worked up to the 1 1/2 in about 6 months. I didn't plan it it so happened that was able to workout more and I kept going. I started working out as soon as my Dr cleared me, and that was about 3 weeks post op.

Boo Boo;

Congratualtions! I was just banded four days ago and feel as though I am starving! Thank you for the inspiration! I know that I can do this because of you. Do you have a weighloss blog showing your journey?

      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.
