If so, why not try some online sevice for LGBT, such as Bimingle.com for LGBT , it's your own world. Hope you can be successful there.

no such thing as my own world!

we are all people, on this same earth. if you have a problem with that then maybe you shouldnt read the LGBT side of the forum.

Vikihong- What?

Bubz- Hi. I'm Tara, I'm 26. It's nice to have you on the forum. If you have any questions that I can help you with, feel free to ask.

Just a warning, the LGBT forum is pretty slow, so don't think anyone is ignoring you if you don't get a response right away. I've been banded since feb. and I am one of the lucky slow losers, but It's still coming off.

My partner actually had a gastric bypass when she was sixteen, so she's really supportive. It's good to have someone around you can depend on.

Anyway, welcome. Hope to see more of you.

Well slow as in it's been nine months and I've lost 50 lbs. But I had about a four month pause. It was so annoying.

That was Vikihongs only post here ever, so just ignore that, sometimes people act like buttheads and troll around or spam around.

The liquid stage is hard, but it gets much better after that.

hi all,

I don't know if I have posted here before!! but I have notice that this forum is slow. I will try to visit more:smile2:. we as lgbt people need all the support we can get; more from people who understand and relate to other issues that effect our lives. so lets all look into this forum routinely

Kim- out for 24yr

Hi Bubz, I was banded on 12/01 & just wanted to say hello & see how you are doing. I'm going for my first fill 01/09 & am kind of creeped out about anyone touching that area, but all else is well & I am enjoying the journey. Keep in touch & just ignore the vikihong's of the world!

Hi all,

My name is Debbie. I'm being banded February 10th. I'll start my pre op diet next Monday, and it's all I can think about. My partner is very supportive although she was just a little scared when I first brought up the subject of being banded.

Bubz, congratulations on losing so much.

And yes, I'll try to visit more, too.

Debbie

      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.
