I have a blog I'm a low BMI person, so if you are not offended in reading, come on over. ~Katie:redface: Me ~vs ~ Myself

I was banded on Friday (1/15) and had to have a hiatal hernia repaired. My doctor had already informed me that I might have this, and that they would bill my insurance the cost of the surgery- which would mean my surgery cost -self pay- would be less.

I am being banded on the 15th. I was wondering if any of you are having a hard time distinguishing between 'head' hunger and actual hunger? I am on day 6 of my pre-op diet, and it took me yesterday to realize how much my head was telling me I was hungry instead of my stomach. Also, are any of you seeing a large weight loss, or only a few pounds so far? ~ Katie :tt1:

Hello all! I am excited to say that I will be getting my band on the 15th- woohoo!!:smile2: I began my pre-op diet on the 2nd. I have a Protein shake for breakfast & lunch (and I can add fruit, sugar free jello/pudding for taste) and 4 oz lean protein with green veggies, plus 1 c fruit for supper.
