hi everyone im back from surgery had it on thursady 2/24/05 all went well, actually it was amazing im back on my feet allready went to the mall yesterday and feel great no pain just a little sore but im actually going back to work today sunday. for all those who dont remaber who i am i was the person who had surgery done and the band was not even placed around my stomach my suregen this time dr fielding was great he told me the band was placed around a bunch of fat at the top of my liver (GREAT HUH). so for now im just glad to have the band back in place and hopefully back on schedule to loose weight.i forgot how much this liquid diet sucked the last time now its even worse i hate it but im just happy to be ok. and as for the other doctor and the radiologist who missed the wrong placement of the band. my lawyer is going have a field day with them. well just wanted to say hello to eveyone and thanks for the support.

I'm glad to hear that things are good for you. Don't let that doctor get away with making such a huge mistake, make him pay for his mistake. You'll need the extra dough to buy your new wardrobe once you lose all your weight.

      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.
