How are the banded Notorious Novembers???



Recommended Posts

I went to see my dr today. He wants to consult with another surgeon. It slipped up, not down. High chance of removal at this point. I go back in 3 weeks.

I'm really sorry to hear that. It doesn't sound like typical slippage. I wonder if it is something even more uncommon or something due to the way the surgery was done. I do hope you have a good outcome and they take the best care. Keep us updated.

Banded November 13, down to 220 (loss of 34 pounds since surgery). I'm a slow-loser, but I am happy with it. Still not out of my 18s yet, but did buy a size 16 dress from Dress Barn for my son's HS graduation ... would have fit a 14 had my hooters been a little smaller! :welldone2: I'm finally getting noticed (for my weight loss that is)! :frown: I'm on track to be down 60 pounds at my 1 year bandiversary. That was what I expected--I just expected the beginning to be faster than it has been for me. Seems I've been losing the best in the last few months.

WTG EVERYONE!

Hey all! Just a check in to let everyone know I am not officially just overweight! Think I am in my first real sweet spot. The weight is coming off with little effort and I feel awesome. Hope it last for a while!

I am now on my first three month stretch from the doc. I don't see him again until August UNLESS I need a fill. Pretty cool!

      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.
