We need a name July Bandsters



Recommended Posts

Ok, now I can't find the link again, but there was a question out there under the pre-op questions. Inside there was a link with instructions. Since I can't find it (and it was only last night that I found it!), I will try to tell you from memory.

You go to tickerfactory.com. You should open that in a new window or tab. Then you go down to the bottom and click on weight loss tickers. You choose your ticker, and put in a username and password, etc. Then when you finish setting it up, there is a url at the bottom that you can use on your website or whatever. Highlight that url and right-click and copy. Then go back to LBT and click on the tab at the top for your personal preferences, etc. Then choose edit signature on the left. Once the window comes up, paste the url in and it will give you the option to preview.

I hope this helps and that I didn't forget anything!

Well, it looks as though I'll be in the July group. I had my preop consult today. As soon as the transcription comes back, my records will be sent to insurance. The lady who does these says my inusrance is really quick. Approval should take from 10 min (I'm serious...she said sometimes they are that quick) to three days. As of now though, my surgeon is backed up to July 6. So, it looks as though I'll definitely be a July bandster! Fill me in when a name is decided upon!

P.S. I'll be trying the ticker thing now, so if it doesn't work, repost and I'll share my experience (that is if I am successful:wink2:)

Okay...ticker was successful. Also, I have another name suggestion. What about Firecrackers? There is another thread dedicated to finding a name, so if you like it, you might want to post there too. Whatever is decided works for me. I just want a name and a firm surgery date! :grouphug:

      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.
