Thanks to having what I think is the flu this past week, I'm down to 226.5!!! I've been taking basically clear liquids/yogurts, just until this throat stops hurting so much. I haven't been 2-twenty anything for a very long time! I love my band!!

Congrats to everyone on their fabulous work!

I'm back from an ice-cream-filled vacation. . . and in Onederland again! Drumroll, please: 199. Down one bloody pound in a month. But that's something of a miracle considering how much frozen custard I put away recently.

Pretty happy right now. Didn't gain but didn't lose either. I am still 234. Gotta kick this thing into HIGH gear now. Got 6 more to lose for the challenge. Good luck all.

I'm down 1 more pound this week to 267. Better than gaining, but I'm not thrilled. Good job everyone on your weightloss, and for reporting it every week. This board is a great support for me.

I continue to be blessed with a wonderful banding experience. I can't believe it's almost been 6 months. I'm down 3 lbs this week to 282. I'm hoping for 2 more by the 31st, which will be my exact 6 month banderversary, and would be a 60 lb weight loss.

Guest EDNAK.

Good Luck With Your Surgery. I Will Say A Little Prayer That All Goes Well Will This Be 2 Surgery's In The Same Year? Does Your Dr. Think That The Band Had Any Effect On This At All?

      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.
