Where did you post them, Brina? I can resize them for you but first I have to find them.

You are my hero!

The pics are located here:

LapBandTalk.com - Lap Band Forum > Main Lap-Band Surgery Forums > General Lap-Band Surgery Discussion navbits_finallink_ltr.gif Before and After Pictures - PIX ONLY <------

Could you show me how to post them at a smaller size so that I wont have to bug you so much? I think that the few pics that i have of myslef were taken with a digital camera and then upleaded to my computer. That means that ALL of the ones that I have will coem out this huge unless I figure out how to post them correctly.

Thanks again,

Quoting myself so I don't have to retype:

Open the picture in Paint. Click Image > Stretch/Skew. Enter a percentage value for horizontal and vertical. Enter the same percentage for both fields to maintain your aspect ratio. If you enter different numbers, your picture will be deformed.

The percentage is basically what you want the image to be resized to. E.g. entering 50% will resize the image to be half of its current size.

If it's still too large or small, just click Edit > Undo, and repeat the steps entering a larger or smaller percentage.

      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.
