Hi everyone, I was just curious to see how everyone is doing weightwise. So, I'd like to know, what is your surgery date, and how much have you lost SINCE surgery, not including the pre op dieting. Thanks and best of luck to everyone! :wink:

My date: May 20, 2009

Weight loss since: 10.5 lbs

:thumbup:I was banded on 05/07/2008. It 's been a little over a year and I've lost 70 pounds. I wouldn't change a thing! I couldn't be happier. I did not have any complicaitons. The most common problem I have is constipation:blush: but take care of that with Benefil. I started off size 20/22 and I'm now wearing a size 14.:sneaky: I can't remember the last time I was a 14. I would still like to get about 20 more pounds off. I went from sitting on the couch every night to walking 3 to 4 miles everyday. I love it and would definately recommend this to everyone.

I'm good with my diet. chicken and fish with a little bit of veggies on the side. I don't stray from that too much. I don't eat any bread, rice,or Pasta. I'm scared to even try it. :wink:

I am with you all, surgery date 28th of May and to begin with I could see the restriction and lost steadily until I hit 9 lbs, then the restriction went away, weight loss stopped and bandster hell began! LOL, I am fighting the hungries and have 3 weeks till 1st fill. My willpower is not holding as strong as I would like but I am a work in progress I guess.

      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.
