Fire&spice - thanks for posting your stats and loving the spreadsheet :blush: Spreadsheet is for all of the sept bandsters....We can form our own little study maybe we can get more realize bandsters from sept to post... I can't remember off the top of my head but I think there are a few others.

I am finding the spreadsheet interesting already... I have heard on this board and from a friend I know who has the realise band also, that it takes more to feel restriction w/ that band. There is someone on this board who has what is called a 'pressure' fill she has a 10 cc band filled to 11 cc.

Hi Everyone, just checking in. I'm still at my plateau. Hopefully I can get something going this week. I really want another fill but the doc wants to wait until next month. Once I make it to 170 I'm gonna call to see if she will take me in earlier.

The spreadsheet is a great idea I'm gonna try and duplicate it for another thread I'm on. Hope you don't mind :blush:

Take care and keep up the good work.

An idea-

Move to September 2009 postings from pre-op site?

I was looking around about moving this thread to the month and year part. Is anyone else interested? Maybe some 09/09 folks can't find us anymore, and if this was moved to the

September 2009 Band Date List - LAP-BAND® Surgery and LAP-BAND® Discussion Forum

area, maybe there would be more people keeping track of 09/09. Also, if this thread could be a sticky?

I don't see how to do this, I guess we contact the forums.

Does this make sense? It doesn't to me, reading it!

I tried to get everyone to go there once we 'graduated' in Oct and were no longer preop, but no one seems to read that and everyone gets notifications on this thread...I think that is why they are staying. I periodically check the sep 09 but never really see postings if I have any real questions i go to the post surgery area.

smallerj ok for me if you duplicate it for another thread - I copied this one and then just tailor made it for our needs (I started w/ the Feb challenge s/s). Long as you don't have others adding data to this one I'm ok (I only want this for Septembers 09's since we all started around the same time).

Thanks!!!

Helen

Bostonlady - I'm doing ok - I'm more than halfway there! about 48 lbs or whatever my ticker says. We set up a spreadsheet for the septembers if you care to update and see what others are doing. You can get an idea of the fill levels others have at a glance it is found in this link you don't need to save it just update

Travel & hmarko, I too believe that we come over here more often. I tried going to the other and I like this one better. Also if someone has come over here then they continue to get the notification so basically they are no longer coming here because they don't want to. I go to the other place but it too many threads and I fear I may lose this one.

      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.
