Banded 12/11/07. I've only lost 19 pounds but that includes the 6 pounds I lost on the two week pre-op liquid diet. I get my first fill on Monday 1/21/08. I just started exercising last week. I was afraid if I started too soon I'd injure something in my abdomen, like I did in week 2 post-op. Doc says I ripped a stitch through the muscle. Ouch!

I was banded December 20, 2007. So far I have only lost 19 pounds, but its enough to keep me motivated. I haven't found anything I can't eat yet. I see a lot of people say there are a lot of things they can't eat. I don't know what PB is though. Can someone fill me in?

Starting weight-193

Current weight- 174

Goal weight- 125

      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.
