Hmm, i know our puree in my binder and i know chris and iwere contemplating with the same stuff, but like the cotage cheese we had to push it to make it a puree..

They will go over it during the preop class....:sad:

AND jes, you do not advance yourself. Liz will call you and tell you when to do full liquids then robin calls for the rest.

You will all be VERY happy to start softs:D

I just pulled out the binder, its the same, but in puree you have to puree the cottage cheese, thats why we all call it Mushies.. it is all in a mushie consistency like mashed potaters. But i dont think anyone liked pureeing the chicken, i did it.. and even took a pic but ate it once....:sad:

Yep Softs was a good stage.............

I would advance myself if they forgot. I kept track of the days on my calender. But I would be considered to be "doing my own thing" if were to actually endorse that so I won't..............:-)

Tina - did you ask when our class was? It's 9/3 - you should really come with us. I think it would put jes & I on Liz & Robins good side :D

does the kaiser website have a forum? I think I'm gonna check that out to see if there is anybody there who has had Dr. fisher for their band. im curious to know how he works. Like will i come out with 4cc or will I come out with 1cc - how is he on fills, can he find the port without bruising the heck out of me. Just little things like that would be nice to know LOL

Evenin Ladies! Ok, Day 2 30 DY Active Challenge, done! I am really enjoying it now, I bought an Intec wireless controller (nunchuk) to use with the remote, so I am wire free, and wow, I can jam with movement!

How is everyone else doing, so who might make it on Saturday? Prob asking (cause I be a lil nervous) hehehe.

Still pretty tight in the morn, and am really watchin what and How I am eating...think I am at the sweet spot for now!

Continuing to learn to listen to the body 'soft signs', believing for a body and band balance with my brain! As I always say...they band the belly, not the brain, shux! :D

      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.
