Banded June 7. I have lost 22.5 pounds. I am oh so close to onederland. YIPPEE!! This is not near as much as I would have liked but given the last few months I am not going to complain. I have also had a heck of an emotional time lately dealing with some family problems. I am SO lucky I have not gained anything. In that my band has been a Godsend.

I have had several problems though. I had acid reflux for the first couple of months and it scared me more than anything but "Acid has finally left the building." I also had a hell of a PB. I ended up throwing up blood int he emergency room; however, it seems to have just been a freak accident and everything is fine now.

I have had two fills and am up to 1.6. I am considering getting another fill.

I also have decided to give up fast food. I think it has been bringing me down--energy wise and frankly it is just SO bad for you. So that is my new resolution.

So glad you asked. I love to touch base with other Junesters.

Hello - June 13th here. I don't weight "offically" until monday mornings but as of today I am down 51 pounds. I went for fill #2 this past monday and BOY what a difference. I am now at 2.5cc's.

I haven't really had any problems actually none to think of. I am "sliming" alot right now. (Not sure if that is considered PBing or not) Now that I think my fill is where it needs to be...I can't eat much of anything mostly liquids and mushies right now.

We should check in once a month and see how everyone is doing....Flower what about you? You didn't say how things were going for you.

      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.
