I'm hoping that I'll get my final approval from insurance this week and then hopefully a July surgery date! I've been jumping through all the hoops too and I'm getting weary.

Well, I got my approval earlier this week and a surgery date. NEXT TUESDAY! I'm a June bandster now! Best wishes all! :wink2:

Hi Ya'll! I am praying every day I will be a 'July Butterfly' . I was thinking about it months ago, and I thought July Jewels was sooo pretty, like a dusty jewel that sparkles once you wipe it clean aka banding :smile2:. LOL So I did a search for July Jewels and saw that people had at least thought of it too! I see you didn't pick it, but that's OK, I hope I can join you all, and look forward to meeting you. We will see if I'm an official July Butterfly if I get approved for my loan, waiting to hear any day now.

July Butterflies is my vote.

I also vote for votes to be tallied by June 20th so we all have our name.

Hi,

I'm a Lucky #7 from July 07. I just drifted over here out of curiosity. A few July 08 folks have wandered over to the July 07 thread, which is fine, but I was going to try to direct them over to a July 08 thread. But you have so many it's kind of confusing. Just a suggestion, but if you could find a way to get people to gravitate over to just one, you'd be able to communicate with one another more effectively. Maybe, when you decide what you're going to call yourselves, start a new thread and title it something like "July 08 Butterflies Main Thread".

Best thing I ever did!!

Hi all, I was away for a while so never responded but I'm glad you like the banner--I noticed the font was really light (and kind of small) so I played around with it a bit more--maybe this is better....

If you think that the girl's foot in the "S" is too distracting I can try to move her (it is a bit involved though)....let me know. Also, I'm going to start a thread about it just to make sure folks see it :smile:

      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.
