my first big milestone



Recommended Posts

Greetings All Stars,

I am officially down 40lbs...It is now 3 months since my band date. yahoo !!!!!! :thumbup:

I went for my second weigh-in and fill yesterday. I'm really excited and proud.

This success could not have achieved so quickly without my band.

I already had 1.5cc and the NP put in another 1.0cc in yesterday. No pain. I feel a little tight in the band area inside me today. I took it light for lunch and did feel some restriction...that is good.....

I am motivated even more to continue my success and journey. Love my band. People at work are noticing my weight loss now ... it is so nice to get compliments for co-workers...

Finally, my band is still a secret to everyone at work, friends and all my family .... :thumbup: except my wife and one close friend...

I wish continued success to all of us... keep positive and work hard.....

Gary

Congratulations Gary B,

I am also down forty and going for my second fill this Tuesday 11/18. It is the first time my weight has begun with the number “2” in five years (my first big milestone). This is absolutely the best decision I have made in a long time. Good luck everyone and keep up the great work.

      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.
