Wow Nicolie and Tamra- you go girls. Both of you are rocking it. You'll both be banded before you know it.

I was down another .5 today so that is 3.5 since Saturday. I had a Protein Shake for Breakfast and I have 1/3 cup tuna and 2 of the Wasa crackers for lunch and then another Protein shake for an afternoon snack.

Can you make it on the 16th Donna?

Tamra-No problem on the gym...You have your treadmill now, right??? We can always call each other and make sure we get on and off at the same time...I have been using mine pretty regularly.

What's next...Help me out ya'll...This is what I remember....

After you meet the pre-surgery weight requirement...They schedule you for the case manager appt-with Liz...., they schedule you for the psycologist appt...Both are very easy and you will do fine at both. They will also schedule you for a pre-surgery class. They schedule you for lab work and an EKG.....This is all I can recall...Recently banded...Jes and Candra and anyone who remembers???? Chime in...

Food-

Breakfast-Coffee with sugar and non-dairy Creamer

3 slices of turkey and 1 string cheese

Lunch-1/2 cup chicken Noodle Soup

So far....and yes, I am feeling lots of restriction.

Heres my food today, I am in a very bad snacking mood:

Breakfast - 1 Venti Decaf Skinny Latte

Lunch - chicken Ceaser salad no croutons from Panera

Snack - 1 small bag of Pork rinds (I know, not that great but zero carbs and I was in the mood for salt)

Dinner - will be a shake

      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.
