Hi there,

Your story is so similar to mine. I had my first child last December too and have considered WLS for awhile. I am going to be banded on November 25th. I look forward to hearing how it goes for you.

Hi all! My date is Nov 12th! I'm starting the pre-op diet on Monday so enjoying my last few treats now, especially since my birthday is just 4 days before my surgery! Had my cake and ice cream today since I won't be eating that for a while! lol So excited!

Just started cleaning out my kitchen. Which is easy since I live alone. I didn't waste much since I haven't gone shopping for a while. Was guilty of living off take out. But, I cleaned out the fridge completely and my cupboard. Its a shame that I'm already tired and need to take a break. Exactly why I need to get this weight off. Gonna clean my apartment from top to bottom this weekend and get rid of clutter. Emotionally, I need this. Day 6 of the pre op diet and still going strong!

LOL I have cleaned out some stuff too... have to be careful since I have 3 others at home who are not having weight issues ;o) challenging!

Hey there November Knockouts!!! I am here to join you!!! I have been jumping through hoops with my insurance and have just decided to say the heck with it and do self pay! I've spent too many years of my life overweight and I'm not going to waste anymore time fighting with my insurance, besides whats a little more debt on the huge mountain I allready have!!!! Anyway I have a surgery date of November 19 in Colorado with Dr. Kirshenbaum and I am sooooo excited! Not looking forward to the flights as most of us overweight people dont. But I'm thinking of this as the last time flying fat!!!!! Good luck to everyone!!!!

Just made something yummy with my limited pre op food options. Besides the Protein Shakes I can have two cups of non starchy veggies and broth. So I used 1 trader joes concentrated chicken broth packet, 1 cup Water and warmed it in a pan. Added 1 cup of frozen artichoke hearts, a little pepper . Cooked until hearts were tender. Yummy! Can add more water and another packet of broth if you like the Soup part.

I just bought the Montel Williams food emulsifier any one else? You can cream and make vegetable Soups that come out hot right from the blender. I thought this would be good to use post op for full liquid and mushy stages. And later to get more vegetables in. Should we not make fruit smoothies I keep hearing no homemade smoothies.

      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.
