  1. Becky! Hi, its susan from indy. I was wondering about you in Houston, I will pray for you. My surgery went smoothly. My biggest pains have been in my shoulders. I have been taking Aleve for that along with the hydrocodene they gave me. I love my band so far. I lost 14 lbs pre diet and am excited to see how much I will lose when I go back in two weeks. I had 1/2 cup of chili pureed today for lunch and that stayed down well. Also really concentrating on gettting in enough water. Let me know how you do susan
  2. Hey everybody! i am only 6 days away from being banded! Can't wait! Been on the medifast diet now for 10 days! Good luck to everyone! We're on our way to better health! susan

  4. He good luck to you tomorrow! You will do awesome! I hope we see each other sometime at Dr. Curry's office! Let us know how it went when you get out of surgery. My date is Sept. 9. We'll be praying for you! Susan
  5. Hey you guys! I am starting to get sick of the medifast foods also. I have only one more week so I am going to grin and bear it. Someone told me the chicken and rice is good so I may go and get some of that. Dr. Currys office is too far so I may get some from another place here in Indy. I think I have lost about 10 pounds on my first week. Gotta remeber not to take any anti inflammatories from here on out! And no hormones! Yuck I am turning into a bear! They did tell me that I could supplement soy isoflavones and wild yam. Hope everyone is doing good! Susan:angry:
  6. My surgery is Sept. 9! I am so excited! Good luck to you on tues. Were you in the seminar with me? Wasn't that psch test a hoot? I wished I lived closer to his office but I am going to go to as many support meetings as I can. Are you planning to also? Good Luck to you! susan
  7. Hey Thanks for all the great tips Maribelle. I have two friends taking me and I was hoping they could shop all day while I am recuperating in the hotel, so its nice to know I can sleep! And thanks for the trip home info, you just don't know these kind of things! I just finished day 6 of the fast. I had the chicken cream soup for dinner, probabley the only thing I haven't really liked. thanks for letting me know also what you are eating. I have to get my BMI up soon and my picture. I have to get one of my kids to help me cause I'm not too good at uploading! Do you go to the support groups? I may try to go sometime. susan:cool2:
  8. :rolleyes2:Hey Maribelle! Yes, we are staying overnight at the Drury Inn near the surgery center. I am gathering up all the things I need to stay in a hotel! Will I be drugged a lot and feel sleepy? I hope I have a smoothe return to everything, most people I talk to have. Did you lose much before surgery? What kinds of things did you have after surgery, Erin said clear liquids so I called her yesterday for some ideas. Thanks susan
  9. Hi! I'm susan, Are you on the preop diet yet? I think the staff at Dr. Curry's office is great! I am so glad he hired the excercise people for help for us after surgery! Keep in touch! I am getting all my sruff together for after surgery because I have to stay there in a hotel!
  10. Hey Nina! I am on day 6 of medifast. Just 8 days to go! I really don't think it is too bad. I just decided you can do anything for two weeks! I am so excited about wearing new clothes and being able to move better that I can hardly wait! Good Luck! susan
