Hey all! I was banded on 1/20 so only for a few days. I'm doing great though, no pains just a little sore. I'm not hungry at all but I'm forcing myself to sip Water and Protein drinks all day. Other than that things are great, thinking about going back to work Monday and just enjoying not pigging out on every whim.

I learned today that I am an emotional eater BIG TIME. My hubby got laid off this week, and even though he found and has started a new job, he will have a 3 week window with no paychecks...so I'm a little stressed. I literally wanted to just stop and eat something comforting, but I KNOW it is NOT worth it. Nice to learn what makes you tick so that I can be more aware....but all in all, I'm staying positive and I know that God has a plan for us and that everything will work itself out in due time!

Take care New Year's Hotties!!

Ok it has been almost a whole month now. I am down about 25 lbs. and one size down since the 12/29/08. I had my surgery on the 8th of Jan. 09. I am still not hungry and I am eating about 1/4 cup to 1/2 cup of food per meal. I feel this might be to much. But I don't hurt at all. I have no fills at this time. I go on 2/16/09 to get my first fill. I hope it does not hurt.

I am in love with my band still.

      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.
