Yahoo - June 24th for me at Great Lake Weight Loss in MI. They have a reasonable self pay program so you don't need to travel out side the US. Can't wait to start this new journey!:confused:

My surgery date is June 9th. I am so excited. I am not really nervous although I might start to get nervous as it gets closer to going to the hospital. I am having such a hard time with the pre op liquid diet-I am so hungry and cranky. But-this is all worth it b/c I will be getting my life back and to who I used to before my weight took over my life. I also keep talking about my surgery a lot-my boyfriend is starting to get annoyed. Good luck all June Bandsters! ( And all other months too, of course:) ). It would be neat if there was a group for June Bandsters, so we could all go through this at the same time--anyone know of any Yahoo Groups or is anyone interested in starting one up?

Hello, I am also scheduled for June 14th :biggrin:. I am a bit nervous about the pre-op diet that I start this coming Sunday. Has anyone else had problems with the pre-op diet?

Im on day 2 of my liquid diet. As they say, the only easy day was yesterday. Im taking Muscle Milk, broth (chicken, beef and Vegtable) sugar free Jello and pudding. I think the secret is not waiting until you are starving, but once you start to feel hungry, to have one of your "food" sources. The muscle milk keeps me going for about an hour or two. In between time I have jello and Water. Am I full- no. Is it fun-no, but it is bearable.

Hi, i was banded yesterday June 1st. The surgery went smooth & well. Only pain yesterday aside from the soreness was the gas pain in my shoulders and back. Today I have pain/stinging I assume where my port is. Trying to not focus on the pain. I have drank Water, ate Jello, broth, and Protein Myoplex. Have not had nausea or anything like that. I am hoping the small amount of pain i am feeling goes away quickly.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks
