I wish you luck but I don't think it matters if you lose or gain during supervised weigh ins. So, I wouldn't worry. After all if you could lose the weight normally, you wouldn't need the surgery. Of course, you would probably gain it all back and more like I have time and time again. I figured the lapband was as close to a muzzle as I could get - ha.

I know I don't have to lose with my weigh-ins, doesn't mean I don't want to. I am TRYING to lose and trying to follow what my nutritionist says. I don't want to gain or to stay the same weight. The more I lose now the more it will help with surgery. And the more self esteem and determination and positive attitude it will give me.

Just before my surgery I over heard my doctor telling someone that if they didnt lose weight he would not do the surgery because he wanted to know they were serious about it. The band is a tool not a fix all.

I know that dieting is very hard and sometimes you need a break from it. Thats ok so now you should just try to do a little better next time. Dieting is day to day. Wish you the best of luck.

My fingers are crossed for you. The more you lose now the less you'll have to lose after you have surgery. Good for you!

Hi Froggi, funny, I go for my 4th visit on Friday. This month has been a little tough for me too. My husband and my son had birthdays this month. I ate a little bit of cake and ice cream. Other than than that I've been doing okay. Hope all goes well!

      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.
