drstan,

I do believe you would be more credible if you were to capitalize sentences and addresses, punctuate correctly, and try to separate thoughts coherently.

I do not doubt that you are unhappy with your band. I'm honestly sorry that you feel this way. I am surprised that you were given a band with so little weight to lose. I hate the fact that there is a surgeon out there that is giving such horrible advice.

Maybe if you could share more of your journey with us, tell us of your pre-op visits, we could give you more support. I believe you are in need of support and would like to offer you some. How can we help?

15 pounds overweight and they approved the lap band surgery.

The surgeon should be ashamed of themselves.

Thats a joke.

No, that's not the only thing you are saying.I believe the title of your post is lapband = deceit and bullsh**t. Now if you have some legit comments / questions, feel free to fire away. But don't come on to a lapband site and take that tone. If you really are a DDS (which, in all honesty, I seriously doubt.....If you are, lay off the N2O) then do some research into how the band is supposed to work.

Serious questions / comments only from this point forward, K? Thx.

Exactly. I'm gaining the moment, cos I am eating too much of the wrong thing and not doing any exercise after sustaining an injury training for a half marathon (was running upwards of 50 km a week). I'm lazy as all get out and its MY fault, not my band's. My band is still doing it's job thank goodness though. Otherwise I'd have put on twice what I have. Sometimes its not entirely right to blame external things only (ie just the band).

No one deceived me on the fact that I'd have to work for the REST OF MY LIFE with this band. That its hard from time to time, but its a commitment we all make in having this surgery. If your Dr didn't tell you that, then he's not doing his job. AT ALL.

What's a troll?

A "troll" is someone who comes onto a message board or forum (such as this) and says things to deliberately provoke people and cause drama. Often times they don't even believe what they're saying, and are simply trying to stir things up a bit and cause a frenzy of posts to be made. I guess they derive pleasure from seeing lots of people swarm in to say how wrong they are, how uninformed they are, etc. They just like the attention, however negative it may be.

This person's posting style and appaulingly bad run-on sentences tell me he's just a troll looking to get a rise out of other bandsters. :thumbup:

      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.
