Thanks ya'll, it's a labor of love for the April Bandsters, someone from May will need to take over THAT cause. It's kinda hard work! Okay, not in the HARD work kind of way, but it takes some time and attention. All I did was start the April Bandsters thread, a few signed up, TrishS to start, and from there I just started reading posts, and when I came across an April Bandster, I edited the post with the list and added them on, and the list sort of developed on it's own. Then I started seeing the weeks appear, and rather than start threads for each individual, well, I just went for the weekly thread. There are 10 Bandsters for this coming week! 10! And I am one of them! Woohooo! It's overwhelming to keep up with each person, particularly when they don't post regularly and beg for the cheerleading like I do shamelessly. I also want to make sure everyone makes it back okay. It helps me stay calm when I see one after another go and come back and now, weeks later they are posting about PB's and all the normal stuff...it's reassuring for me. I am not completely altruistic!

I leave on Thursday morning, early, and will need to post the NEXT week's thread before I go, since I don't know how I will feel when I get back Sat night and, honestly, don't want to have to worry about it...so it's chugging along, but the May folks will have to find their own advocate (hint, get busy) I really love all of you but keeping up with April is plenty for my soon to be very small plate, pardon the pun!

Yay this week's Bandsters!!!!

Okay gang, I have spotted posts from Debri85, who is rescheduled for later this month, BKMayer is back, tammy (tambonzjo) is back and Harleynana's Mom is back too. And then there's me and I know chris is home because I saw her with my own two eyes and she's really pretty and nice.

So, we need to hear from robin, angeleyes, sweet tooth, smellycat, and kellyV. If you have seen or heard form any of these folks, tell them to check in here. We want everyone home and Banded!!

      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.
