Congradulations!

I, too, have lost over 100 lbs. I was banded 8 months 14 days ago. Isn't it a great feeling, almost hard to believe. I never thought I could be in a size 12! Even in my teenage years, the smallest I ever was was a 14.

I LOVE MY BAND!!!!!!

WOW. You both did an amazing job. How did you do it? To lose 108 lbs in just 8.5 months?

Thanks for the compliment. Yes, I did lose it quick but it was not always easy! I struggled with "banster hell" at the beginning but once I was restricted, the weight melted off. My whole mindset towards food seemed to change with restriction and I have never been so healthy and happy.

You are doing great so far! Best of luck to everyone!

Thanks for such quick response. I am only losing like 1 lb each week since last week, even though I was still on liquid diet last week. That really frustrated me coz I was so hungry all the time, yet I ate nothing but was not losing weight. I am glad to hear that after reaching a good restriction, the weight would start to melt off. Do you exercise everyday and a lot? I am only walking (slow walking) about 25 minutes each day coz I still feel the soreness to my left of bellybutton sometimes. I wonder if that is where my port is.

      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.
