Hey everyone! I haven't been on here for awhile and wanted to say hi. Love reading everyone's posts. Congrats to all who have lost weight. It's a slow go for me but so worth it. I have lost 31 lbs. Had to dig in my closet for something to wear to church that fit. It was a good feeling. I go back to work tomorrow and will be happy for the routine...can't be tempted to eat when I have to look after 18 2nd graders. :cool:

Jason..your pic is great..congrats on your weight loss.

Shawna..hope you're doing well. When I had my gall bladder out a couple of years ago, I felt so much better afterwards.

Take care all.

Deb

Hi everyone!! Just thought I would stop in and say hello. I am sorry I missed the meeting on Saturday. I had my gall bladder out on Thursday (everything went well) and then I had to photograph a wedding on Saturday (probably not the best idea). Glad to see everything is going well. I will definately be at the next meeting.

=)

Hello Everyone.:lol:

I am a newbie. Banded on 8/11/09 by Dr Miles. Had to stay overnight due to Medicare. I am doing well with only minor pain every now and again. Haven't had to take anything for the pain yet. Staples come out tomorrow.

I want to thank Shawna for agreeing to be my Angel mentor. It makes me feel stronger to know I have someone that will reach out if needed.

I cannot believe that I haven't wanted a diet cola at all since giving them up. I was so addicted to them. Water with crystal lite seems to be satisfying me for now.

As soon as I figure out how to put all the "pretties" on here, I'll get mine up.:D

      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.
