Hi, i already got banded last week on 08/17.

 

If u want to try a diet i can tell u what i did.

 

I was on a diet and working out 5 days a week, what i did was replacing breakfast for a protein shake (Myoplex regular Strawberry mixed with orange juice Tropicana 50 cal) for lunch i choose a very healhty meal, try some meat or chiken, some potatoes or platain or even a little wheat pasta) avoid fried food , rice , bread and calories drinks. dont drink while u get lunch wait at least 15min. and for dinner i got a smothie 1/3 pound of strawberrys,1 banana, 1 egg(protein) and add like 8 onz of apple juice (Motts Light) u can mixed with the (Tropicana 50) i u get tired of the apple juice. Dont need to add sugar or splenda is already sweet for the juice.

This diet plus working out at the Gym 5 days a week, doing 1 hour on the treadmill burning from (1100 to 1300) calories a day and another 20 to 30 min of mixed machines.

With this routine and diet i lost 48 pounds in 4 months.

 

Of course u need to start the Gym slowly and then keep increasing.

:thumbup: I am from Manhattan, NY and I to have a scheduled date for 9/22. However, I will be having my surgery with Dr. Tiexiera at St. Lukes and will do the pretesting on 9/8. I was actually looking to start a pre-op diet before I go inon 9/8.. and will try your suggestion of a shake in the am and also in the evening or maybe chicken broth... etc. How are you feeling? and how many incisions did you receive?

Take Care.

I'm feeling pretty well :thumbup: now after 8 days of surgery, still weak but i can complaint so far. I took 3 weeks off for recovery anyway, first surgery in my life. I've my first app w the doc tomorrow will see what he says. 11lbs lost so far after surgery.

I got 5 incisions + the one on my belly bottom.

I had my surgery with Dr. Manish Parikh at Bellevue Hospital.

Good Luck

Wow.. I am going to take off about 3 weeks as well... curious what insurance? I have 1199 and was pretty surprised that the office gave me a date without getting the approval first! It's going to be a bummer if the deny... apparently my surgeon only does one incision (belly button) .. that's great just keep doing what you are doing... I'm planning on joining a local gym to continue with the walking and weight lifting afterwards.. that way I can really use the band as a tool to help me achieve my goal. .. keep me posted on your recovery .. and congrats on the weight loss again !!

    • I’ve used my Xbox for exercise games too and it can be pretty motivating, especially on days when I don’t want to leave the house. Kinect games really do make you move, and after a session with kickboxing or dancing, I always feel like I’ve actually gotten a solid workout. The controller-free setup feels way more natural for workouts than anything I tried on the Wii. Zumba is fun but definitely takes a little time to get the moves right. Lately, when I’m not working out, I spend time trading CS2 skins and finding new guides on this link. There’s a lot of interesting tips if you’re into games outside of fitness too.
