So today is the start of the craziest two days of my life lol. I'm leaving in 10 mins to bring my on again off again (I don't know what else to call him lol) to school because his car broke down, and before I leave I have to pack my car with my work clothes and everything for the sleep study. I'm so nervous about all my appoinments and I really hope I can get there ok, after I leave I'm not gonna see my house again until tomorrow morning (I hope.) Ahhh I'm so stresssed, but at least I know tomorrow after the psych eval I will be like, 200 steps closer to my band, wish me luck!

Allison, you're going to do fine. The sleep study is tedious and you won't sleep a lot. Plan on sleeping tomorrow if you can. The psych is not bad. You'll take a personality test, which is long and lame, and the PhD will meet with you regarding any severe problems, i.e. clinical depression, psychosis. You don't strike me as suffering from some sort of malady of the mind. :thumbup:

Good luck! And again, you'll do fine!!! And closer to getting your band!!!

Good Luck Allison!!! Let us know how it goes.

Has anyone tried Unjury protien powder? unjury.com A bunch of people say it's the best tasting powder. I was thinking of ordering some. I live in MO and have never seen a Trader Joe's, I'll have to see if there is one anywhere near me.

I can't wait until some of you early bloomers get banded so you can tell us all about it! COME ON MAYYYY!!!

      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.
