HEY SEXY MAN.....MUAHH:wub:

ahh don't beleive the hype. Its amazing how many folks you meet on these boards. Lots of interesting and some uhhh verrry interesting folks lol. Well chica, welcome to the merry band of bandies. Do what the doctor told you to and you'll loose more weight and keep it off better than anything you've ever tried before in your life and feel better look better and absolutely love life. I am sure right now with 2 weeks in you're thinking I'm a hungry Sommmma beach but that will subside and you will learn to control and learn to understand what "full" means. I wish you much luck in the future.:rolleyes2:

Hey, Jenny! Congrats and keep up the good work! I'm being banded on 3/25 and I had my first "mini-melt-down" today. I've been so excited about having the surgery, but the reality just hit me today! But, I'm up for the challenge and my new way of life!

      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.
