My name is Jon and I am 36. My wife Sonya is 41.

We both got banded on Dec 8th. She was at 255 and change, I was at 279.0 - both weights same at the same-day-surgery center and at home.

We were done in Melbourne, FL by Dr. Fusco and we both live in Merritt Island, FL.

We're both on our way - and I can tell you that putting up the Christmas tree on Saturday is going to have a whole new meaning this year!

My name is Fran. I live in Florida. I am 50 years old. I was banded December 10th with Dr. Jeffrey Lord in Pensacola. I absolutely loved the whole surgical experience at Sacred Heart. The care was great and right now I couldn't be happier.

High weight 296

Morning of Surgery 281

Goal 160-180 (I am six feet tall so I might be too thin at 160) Time will tell :wink2:

Im Alisha, Im 22, and my highest weight was 326.

I had surgery on the 18th and I was 315!

My surgeon was Dr. Whynn at GHRIAS in Newark, Delaware

As fo my goal weight... Im thinking 180 is a good number for me. Really I just want to fit into a size 16!

      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.
