Verona sounds great. Italy is a wonderful country.

I was banded on the 14th November 2007 - nine weeks today. I had a two week pre-op diet. I've lost 24.5 kilos so far which I'm delighted about. So far so good.

Regards,

Steve

Hi Luciej

well got my 2nd fill and wow i have restriction now. Can only eat mushies and liquids but this is what i thought it would have been like right from the start, but i could eat normal untill my first fill and even then quite big portions and it was hard not to eat. Now well bring it on lol.

Not long now for you. time will pass quickly and then there will be no stopping you. Good luck

best wishes

      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.
