NSV and Not Banded Yet! :)



Recommended Posts

I feel I had an NSV last night. One of my dearest friends that I thought was going to have a problem with me having the surgery and not support my decision came through for me last night.

He told me that he will support my decision and will be there for me if I need him. That is just plain awesome. It made my night. I was on cloud 9! I know I shouldnt really care if they are behind me or not, but I do. I am doing this for me to better myself and want to make my family and friends proud of me!!!

I am having my surgery on the 30th of June and I feel like I have already gotten an NSV without it! :) Look how it is going to make me feel once I have it. I have all my family and friends support.

My Dear Husband has been so supportive of me doing this and he is very excited for me. He is such a wonderful man. I am one of the luckiest woman in the world!!!! WOO HOO!!!!

Thanks Kathy! Wow, Looks like your the only one to reply. I really appreciate you being here for me. You are an inspiration to me to keep going through with this. Of course I get those days where I am like, WHAT AM I DOING? But for the most part I am very very excited about doing this so I will have something to talk about with you once it is done.

Yes, He is! He is a very special part of my life. I think very highly of him and really appreciate him coming around and understanding my decision. See we have another friend that had RNY and she has lost all of her weight and she looks good, but her attitude has changed and she just doesnt take care of herself. She drinks Sun Drops like they are going out of style. We try to talk with her but she doesnt want to listen.

So, He has reservations about it. He doesnt want to see me act like her or eat like she is. He said if I do and he notices it he is going to kick my ass! lol So he is a great friend. He will look out for me and will keep an eye on my habits. My life is going to turn into a big show where everyone is watching! lol

Thanks for the Reply!

I've only had my band a few months and I already feel so different then I did on any diet because I know I will nnot gain the wight I've lost back. Good luck and congratulations on getting your surgery date.

Thanks so much. I can't wait to have it done. I was able to pre register at the Hospital today and get that all squared away. I am so excited. This month is going to go by so fast. :)

      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.
