New - Just started researching
I was just banded on the 16th. its hard its not easy to start to consider A big step in your life; but once you have taken this step i would continue. I started to research almost 2 1/2 years ago and it took me this long to make a commitment with myself, my person, my health, and my life. Please just consider one thing. who will it benefit? once you come up with the answer that it will benefit, your health then continue to find a doctor that is what took me the longest. To find a dr. that your comfortable with. I went to two dr. and then i found dr. oliak. and i knew he was the one. if you have more questions here is a website that may help. www.lapbandnow.com eile

Karen, I don’t know how I lost the nine pounds because I was going out to dinner for almost two weeks before surgery. But I was eating healthy from the day I got approved for surgery. I’m eating lots of protean my mom made me some chicken broth with lots of chicken and not as salty as the one from the hospital and the can ones. I’m also drinking my shakes which every shake has 26g of protean. I’m okay on that end.

Karen, I did not have a pre-op diet, I was very healthy thank goodness, and I guess that is why I didn’t have to have the pre-op diet even though I didn’t have the pre-op diet I lost 9 lb before surgery. My TUMMY is full I know it is I’m drinking the correct amount of liquid, and Jell-O. so I’m doing great but my head hasn’t caught up yet. It will Thank you for your nice words

Cali Bandsters Unite!!
Karen, Thank you for your warm welcome. It's not so much that I'm hungry but that you have to fight with your brain to tell it that your not hungry. because my tummy is fine but my brain is hungry and that is what your fighting with. I live in pasadena area, I go to support group 2 times a month I don't think i'm going to be able to make it tomorrow but I will the first monday of next month. thank you again
