100 pounds down! Never going back again!



Recommended Posts

I'm 9 days shy of my 10-month bandiversary, and at my weekly weigh-in this morning, the scale said 190. That's 101 pounds gone--so excited!

This has been such an amazing journey, and I am grateful to everyone in my life, including all the wonderful people on this forum, for so much support and encouragement along the way. I couldn't have made it this far without you!

CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!

Your success story is truly inspiring and motivating. I was just banded on 11-9-09 and everything has been going good so far. Do you have any suggestions, ideas, thoughts for the newly banded. What kind and how much excersise do you do? Do you have certain foods that you stay away from? Certain amount of daily caloric intake? Any advice would be great.

      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.
