  1. I am sorry for all the problems your having. Do you think this could have been pervented if you had the surgery in the states. I was just wondering because i have heard of allot of problems coming from there. I hope everything works out for you.
  2. I hate to say this but come on people its not really that hard, just drink your protein drinks and all the soup broth you can eat and you can do it.. if you really want to lose weight then you have to suck up and do this for yourself.. sorry to be so blunt.. good luck and hang in there..

    Protein Shakes?

    I'm with xavier on this one, the premier from Costco are the best i have found so far.. they should be sinful, the chocolate is great.
  4. I am to be banded on the 14 of DEC, I start a all liquid diet for two weeks prior to surgery.. then its liquids for two weeks after surgery and then pured foods for two weeks and then solid foods... sounds hard but i can do it..
  5. I am one of the unlucky ones that the insurance wont pay for the band. I was wondering if anyone's insurance paid for the test that are performed before surgery... I have my deductible satisfied and was hoping that they would pay for the test leading up to the surgery.. thanks
  6. Thanks guys for the info, Time will tell if they pay when the bills start to roll in.. I just found out yesterday that the big day will be Dec 14. Wow thats only a few days away. I have a pre op teaching class on Dec 1. And then its the liquid diet and surgery. And yes horsegirl I do grow my own and sell it.. How ever they last two years I have had none.. just the way it worked out.. I am leaning toward growing more dry corn.. Hay/Alfalfa the weather plays just a big part of it.. Just got tired of trying to fight mother nature.. good luck everyone.. and thanks again for the info...

    December Bandsters!

    I found out yesterday that Dec 14 is the day for a new beginning of the rest of my life.. I cant wait until then, I am so excited to get it done so I can have that tool to help me get to my goal weight and STAY there..I will be banded on DEC 14.
  8. thanks guys, I have lifewise of Washington, There is a little twist to my story. I have to keep the insurance that i have because i had colon cancer a year ago. And know one else will take me... Yes i have tried weight watchers did very well on it and lost 52libs and have gained most of it back.. cant wait to have the surgery, I am doing the last preop test today and then have a few more meetings with the lapband surgeon. looks like surgery should be sometime in dec..And yes I am paying for it out of my savings...
  9. I am in the early stages of getting the lap band done, I have done all the testing that the doctor wanted so now I am waiting to go to some more meetings that are required before surgery.. I am so looking forward to it. I don't have a problem loosing the weight its keeping it off, so this will be a tool to remind me how much i can eat and stuff i cant eat because it will be painful or it will come back up.. You have to do this for yourself not anyone else, So if you think its for you go for it... good luck..
  10. I am really nervous about getting going with it.. I hope that i can make the change without to much trouble.. I am sure as i go through the steps i will become more comfortable with it..
