they have my surgery scheduled now for the 11th 1 rockin mom! I was suppose to be banded the 12th but they moved it up one day! the first day of liquids was so bad i was so sick but now its day 7 and its down pat!

i could not do the shakes so i use the proslam 45 protein bullets. taste like a melted popsicle. so much easier for me to take! they are almost 4 dollars a tube but they have 45 grams of protein in them and you only have to drink them once a day and get the rest of the protein from other sources. so far in day 7 of my liquid diet i have dropped 16 pounds!

i just tell myself about the bikini i might get or the victorias secret i want! Just focus and also alot of pizza and tv dinners for the family! i also took out any food i would eat!

fastpants when i turn 40 im getting the mommy makeover! lol 3 more years for me to go!

My weight lady made me get 5 years! medical hsitroy!

carissarenae thats a great day to be banded its my daughters 8th birth day!

hi i have aetna and had to submit 5 years of medical history with your weight on it. i dont know how hold you are but it had to be 5 years past history. Aetna is one of the easiest to get approved for! Good luck!

munger it will help with the cravings. i havent had soda in 3 days and im fine and i was a big coke addict! I love cheese and can have cottage cheese on this liquid diet.

good luck! the protein shakes i could not take so i used a protein bullet called pro slam 45 and its awesome! ill be rooting for you and i am so glad i see others with a big family!

Emmawang try proslam 45 from gnc! it doesnt taste to bad and its a bullet of 45 grams of protein! i could not handle the shakes i could not keep them down! i am getting banded the 12th! before i would cheat but i am on day 3 and no cheating! i want it to bad to cheat! good luck to everyone!

hello! that is awesome! well i got you beat with the kids i got 7 lol! My surgery date is 3/12/09 and i call it my new years of my life! Good luck to you and good to meet you. my name is shannon. are you going to do the preop diet? i have stuck to it and am down 10 pounds in 3 days! good luck to you and welcome to the board!:thumbup:

rosebud do not let anyone stop you! good for you! Your new life is gonna start real soon!

I am being banded next thursday the 12th and cannot wait im so excited and i am glad to see others just as excited as me on here! you would not belive the negativity i have heard from others (i think they are gealous!)

i lost 30 pounds before surgery and was approved. i gained 10 back due to meidcation and i am sure youll be approved! Good luck and if you have to do 3 more month just think its only 3 more months! I had to do 6 months also and aetna approved me. I would think 10 pounds would show them you need the surgery badly!

im getting banded on the 12the and cant wait! the protein shakes though omg! i cant keep thoes nasty things down! do you h ave any suggestions on what i can drink protein wize without losing all my guts!:thumbup:
