Hi, I think it is time for me to stop lurking and join the banders. I finally got my date for June 2 today:thumbup:. I am so nervous:scared2: and also excited. I started the journey on 3/17 with my daughter going to our first seminar with Dr. Cerabona. My daughter is 16 1/2 and we are both taking this journey together. I am going first so I can help her when she goes the first week in July. I would have loved to been banded on the same day but she needs to have a head clear for SAT and Finals in June. Since I am new this site I was wondering how to set up a tracker? and add the Jazzy June banner to my posting. Any advise to help me get through the mext couple of weeks I would appreciate it! :party:

Hi,

I will be having surgery on June 27th. I see one other person on that day from Texas. Texas, did you also here the Dr. Ortiz will not be in that day? So I was told that Dr. Martinez will be doing my surgery.:biggrin:

      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.
