Good Morning all,

I just want to thank you to all of you from the Saturday group you made me feel welcome (even though I'm not a LAP-BAND®). I look forward to chatting with you guys as we all strive to reach our goal. Thanks again!

Maria - your son can sit in the waiting room - my kids did when I had my psych appointment - they were safe.

I bought some Smart Ones this weekend to try until I get my fill on Oct 9. I had the spaghetti w/meat sauce one at 9:30 - it was 310 cal, 16g Protein, way too many carbs and sodium, but I was able to eat it all and it will be Breakfast and lunch. The noodles went down fine. My nose started running towards the end which means my pouch was full. I am leaving work in 25 min to go to the dermatologist for a skin check. Then to Curves and then home for a nap. My daughter was up at 2:50 am coughing and I couldn't go back to sleep until 3:30 then I was back up at 4 am. She was sleeping good when I left the house at 6 am.

Glad to see our new friends on line with pictures and everything - it helps to remember who is who.

Good Luck today Tina -

:tongue:Hi Ladies~

Well I emailed Dr. Park and told her that I did my research on the RNY and Lapband and that I change my mind and I would like to do the Lapband surgery instead..

She wrote back:

"Yes, lapband would be an option"

ok maybe i'm jus being "jumpy" but does that mean Yes she's gonna do it or.. Yes.. its an option but she wants to talk to me about it?

Uggh.. maybe i'm jus stressing.. ok I'll wait till I hit my surgery goal weight and then ask her..

Hope your Monday is going good~

Hey everybody, good morning.

Wow it's nice to see all the new people, welcome!

Monique, Canolie glad you got the pictures up.

good luck tomorrow Maria, I hope you feel better. Have you weighed in at home. I'd always give myself a 3 lbs buffer between my scale and the one at Kaiser. So add 3 lbs to your weight at home and see where you are just to be sure.

I got a auto response from the lab saying negative so maybe I don't have an infection. What's weird is as soon as I got home Sat things were pretty close to normal and so on. Hopefully Dr P will send me a note to confirm...

Pam try to de-stress a bit and get some rest. I've had those smart ones but you are right there are way too many carbs so it's not a good fit for me.

Tina, hope your day is going ok, I know it will take some time to adjust but try and look at only the positives and leave that negative energy at the last job you'll feel a lot better.

Riley, you still rubbing your feet LOL

Candra how are you? what's on the menu for today. Is Robin calling today or tomorrow? I had leftover egg salad earlier and I'm still making the split pea.

So I still weigh the same thing I weighed for the last 2 days. My TOM is coming this week so we'll see how that goes. That explains the mindless eating last night. I'm ready to chuck these carbs, they are no good for me.

LaChica - she is tellin you "yes - it's an option (if you want it) so on your next appointment just be sure to confirm that the band is what you want.

Robin is suppose to call me tomorrow - I go see my PCP tomorrow too for my 2 week thing. I rescheduled with Doc Fisher for the 21st of October so it will be a whole month before I get any type of Fluid in this empty ass band LOL. I had chicken salad today (oops) not pureed but very finely shredded and it went straight thru to the bottom of my stomech. I had 1/2c of that for lunch and a 1/2c egg salad for breakfast - been sipping on my americano all day too. not starving but i chalk that up to eating only Protein and not carbs but still would like to feel full or at least satisfied!! Back to pre op rules LOL

I had the egg salad this morning and it lasted for 5 hrs. Then I had leftover Tomato Soup, lasted 30 min, then SF fudge pop. Now I can't stop thinking of meat. I feel like getting up going to buy a chicken breast. The split pea will be done soon but I'm sure that will go right through me too.

Candra now you are going to see Doc Fish a whole week before my appt.

      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.
