Thats great Val, It does feel good to be in the 30's BMI I mean, lol. I have more restriction than I had yesterday, so this is really strange. I am taking it easy cause I don't want to irritate myself anymore. I hope it doesnt get any tighter than it is now, im a little worried. tues. i felt great and yesterday i didn't have much restriction and today little things are getting hung up. so keep my fingers crossed..Im glad you are doing so well.:confused:

Way to make a girl feel guilty for not posting. Im just out of the weight loss mode. I wish I was at least maintaining but the weight is getting the best of me. Its so depressing to step on the scale every morning:tongue_smilie:. But Im still hear reading all about your trials and tribulations!

Well, well, lookie who popped in..Yes, u r right, we r trying to make u feel guilty, glad it worked. Just because your pregnant doesnt make u any less of a bandster, and there may be other woman who become pregnant or want to and they could gain alot of infor from u. and your only gaining baby weight not permanent weight and by staying in touch, maybe u will watch yourself more closely if your not already. we miss u chiming in everyday, and I have gained two lbs back and only have 4.4 cc's now. come on at least a couple times a week so we know how your doing. You'll probably have this baby and surpass us all on you weight loss journey! :frown:

well feel better Yvette, you've got a lotta activities to keep you going.

I on the other hand am probably going to be in dr H.'s office tomorrow. Yes, you heard me. My band has tightened up again, and as of this afternoon, can't get Water down again. they told me to do ice chips and protien shakes and see how I feel tom. but right now its not good. I can't imagine why this is happening to me, but I am scared. talked to Barb and she said they never encountered anyone like me. Ha! they got that right>>:wub: anyway keep fingers and toes crossed. I will probably be totally deflated tomorrow.:)

      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.
