  1. Happy Anniversary my fellow banding triplets. We hit 5 months today. I hope that you get everything you have been wanting today. My NSV was I JOGGED, yes I said jogged, on my treadmill today. Before I never ever did that. Hope everyone has a great day!
  2. Hi Kathy, So do I weigh in daily/weekly and I am not sure how to pm you. Can you please help and give me the details? Thanks!!!!
  3. Hello ladies, I want in the holiday challenge. I would like to be a level 3 please. My name is Jessica. I was banded 7/16. Please let me know what I need to do.
  4. I got some unflavored from bariatriceating.com. I do not know the name off the top of my head, but it is the only unflavored that they have. Good luck!
  5. Hello everyone, Today is the day and I am both excited and a little nervous. The being put to sleep part is the part I am nervous about. The excitedness is from being able to start my new life today. I can not wait. Wish me luck and I will keep you up to date on my progress. Good luck to all you fellow banders that will be getting your surgery today. :whoo:
  6. I am being banded on Monday and I am on a all liquid preop diet with no more than 20 grams of protein, low fat, low sugar diet. Pretty limited in what I can have. I have lost 13.6lbs so far since Sunday. I am looking forward to getting a little more variety on Tuesday b/c it has been lots of broth. Sorry to say this to you but glad to know others have a pre-liquid diet that is similiar to mine. You know the saying--misery loves company LOL
  7. I am on day 6 and I agree it is not as bad as I thought it would be. I have lost 13.6lbs so far and had a bad headache the first 2 days. I attributed it to sugar and caffeine withdrawals. Have not had one since then. Hope that helps
  8. Jeannie, I am originally from South AL so we always went to Pensacola Beach or Ft Walton Beach. the sand looks like sugar there and will squeak when you walk on it. Here, not so much. LOL
  9. Jeanie, It is pretty here. I do not go to the beach much b/c I am crazy. long story short-I am use to the white sand from the gulf and the sand here just looks dirty to me. Isn't that nuts? LOL Dini-the bouncing is funny LOL Lynette, I think I will be posting alot here as well. I am finding the reading entertaining and educational.
  10. I am having it done in Norfolk, VA with Dr. Wohlgemuth. I am so excited. I start my liquid diet tomorrow and just ready for that part to be over. I had my fave tonight b/c I know it will be something I won't be able to have again ever and I am ok with that. I see you are having your done in Tijuana. I have been there twice.
  11. <p>My date is 7/16 and I will be having mine at Sentara Norfolk General. How has the first few days been?</p>
  12. Hi Lynette, I stole the idea from you so thank you. I also stole the the name one as well. I am so excited and can not wait. How has the first few days been for you?
  13. Count me in the Lucky 7's. I get banded 7/16 and can not wait. I start pre-op liquid diet tomorrow. Anyone else getting banded 7/16?
  14. OK so I am feeling really stupid asking this question, but here goes. How do you get the pound line on the bottom of your signature to track your progress? I have not been able to figure it out. Any help you can give is greatly appreciated. I get banded on 7/16 and want to tgrack it. Thank you! :help:
