Thanks for the pictures. You both have done fantastic. Both my Dh and myself are currently to be banded May 24th and June 10th. I am hoping we can be a real support tag team for one another. Do you have any words of wisdom for us. I can think of a lot of positive aspects. Did you run across any negative aspects going through it together? Thank you in advance.

I can not think of but 1 negtive of doing it together. We have 3 children. So coming home after surgery was tough having to go right back to work and taking care of the family.

If we had it to do over we would do it the same way. It has been so great working on it together. Our progess has been so different I needed a fill as soon as I could get one. Debbie waited over 3 months. I now have had 2 with 2.8 cc Deb only has 1 cc . We are all different, but having support this close is great.

      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.
