Yay Chrisann!!!!!! Congrats on your success...and Happy Birthday! I'm not on here as much as I was, so I'm delayed in sending this. I'm still in awe that this band is actually working. Isn't it amazing?! And this heat?!?! Wow, it's done quite a number on me and the band. How about you? I had an appt yesterday and I was assured it was normal, but opted not to have an "unfill". At least I'm not feeling hungry, just have to eat SUPER SLOW and the portions are SUPER SMALL! Probably a good thing. :teeth_smile: Anyway, so happy for you and the early attainment of your goal!!!

Well I tell you the heat in NYC has been atrocious. I haven't been able to walk and I haven't been able to really eat anything. For the first three days this week it was lots of Water, smoothies, slim fasts and I actually finished a whole watermelon. I weighed myself and gained 3 pounds, I attributed that to the weather and that I was retaining Water.

I didn't let it bother me much and all of a sudden between yesterday and today, I must have been in the bathroom 30 times. I was able to eat a small midday meal yesterday, and today had 2 scrambled eggs in the morning :rolleyes2:, (I could never eat in the AM), and boiled shrimp for lunch and no dinner. So I think I am back to normal.

Great weight loss NYG and CPMU you are guys are doing fabulous. I am back to the doctor in two weeks. Have my annual Physical with my PCP tomorrow.

      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.
