No friggin way, another scope, wow, I am frettin' over the upcoming one in the spring, I have an appt with the hoff on wed at 945, so maybe he will set a date.

why did you go for a scope anyway, i am going cause i've had some pretty terrible heartburn on and off since the band. It scares me cause of the cancer thing. wishing you well, and keep us all updated...:thumbup:

Goodnews! I don't think I have to do another scope...just a breath test to make sure the H-Pylori is gone. :thumbup:

Jenn I know how you feel about the water...I have such a hard time with it too.

Yvette..glad to hear you dont need another scope!

I see the doc tomorrow at 1:15. Anyone else have an appt around that time?

This will be my 6 week check up. Hope they do a fill as I am

still hungry after eating and still at a stand still. Maybe that would help a bit.

In the dumps today as boyfriend and I broke up over the weekend after 8 years.

Shitty but i think he's found someone else. My heart is broken :confused: and this makes dieting even harder with this depression. I really think he waited til I got through the surgery to break it off as he was my support person.

Hi Maria,

My appt was for tomorrow but I had to change it to March 23rd :). I hope you're able to get your fill tomorrow. Sorry about your breakup ..atleast he waited until after your surgery to hit you with that bad news.

Yahoo! I seen the hoff today, down to 194, lost 8 lbs in 6 weeks which is huge for this stage of the band. 5 lbs to go to reach my 100 lb loss target. I am soooo happy, don't really know how i did it, been eating a lot of no sugar added edie's ice cream with whipped cream on top. Could it be a diet breakthrough? Lol....

      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.
