Recommended Posts

I'm not sure that I could make this journey on my own. The inspirational stories I've found here, the support, the sharing of the good, the bad and the ugly - its bloody fantastic! So a huge thanks to all of you who come here, for making my day much brighter and this journey seem much shorter.

I would have to second that...I think the reason I have been so successful in so far is because of the support and stories and just knowing that if I ever needed anything I have 100's of people to turn to.

Thanks so much!!!!!

I'll third that sentiment!! This is a great and generous group and we all remember what it's like to be a bandster wannabe or newbie and thinking we're all alone. Sharing information makes all the difference.

I refer to this place as my band family's house. I love it here, it is the first thing I do when I get online, even before email. I have laughed and cried and really gotten great tips and support here. It was my "band family" that told me to fight with the insurance company, so I did and I won. It is my "Band family" that tells me I can make it through 10 days of liquids and I will, (I think). It will be my "band family" that tells me to sip, sip, sip, and walk, walk, walk, when I am wondering what the hell I have done to my self in a few short days. I am glad to be here, and I share this place with anyone thinking of the band. I too wish to say thanks to everyone here for everything you do to help me be a healthier, happier and thinner me. ~Mandy

Altogether now,HUMMMMM "I second that emotion!" WOW we harmonize wonderfully.

I could not have gotten through some of my most trying times with the band, emotionally, spiritually, and yes even physically. LBT rocks!! Love you guys.

Definitely the best! I too look at LBT as my family. There is always support when you need it, a shoulder to cry on, and plenty of friends to Celebrate our achievements.

I have made some really good frinds here and I know I couldn't do it without everyone here!

CHEERS!!!!! :) :)

*sniff* *sniff* Group hugs! I have the option of a traditional support group while I'm home, but large groups of people are vary hard for me. Even large groups of large people...

This place is just THE BEST and so are the people!

      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?

      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.
