Any September Banders?



Recommended Posts

Hi I'm Inan from CHicago and I am scheduled for surgery on 9/10 with Dr Jeffery Rosen. I love his group. They treat each person as an individual. They really seem to care. I am on day 6 of a 14 day medifast pre-op diet. They are powdered meals, shakes, Soups, pudding, eggs and oatmeal. I add a little spice to them and they are pretty good. They are a high Protein, low calorie, low fat meal plan.

Good luck to you and all the rest of the september samuris. This is my first post on here. Actually my first post ever. I am looking forward to having a great group lile this to support each other.

Hi

I just got my band today September 2 I was very lucky in the fact that I was the first appointment of the day. I feel pretty good for the most part just a little tender but nothing I can't live with. Lortab helps also..lol very excited to see the results that are going to come my way. Would love to keep in touch and see how you guys are doing. Hope to talk to you soon...

After going to support group last night, and being lovingly reminded that my surgery is in 2 weeks (not even now) I am totally nervous.

      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.
