Just wondering if I can join this thread. I'm getting banded on Tue, the 29th and I'm sooo excited! I'm also excited to be able to have Soup or something. This pre-op diet (protein shakes and clear liquids) is not fun! I've been hungry all week. I know the band won't have a fill right after surgery, but willl it help with the hunger at all? Hope so, but the liquid diet is only for a couple of weeks....I can do that. Anyway, ya for lap bands!! I can't wait!!!!

Welcome I am waiting for the 30th, so I know how you feel ! Nerves seem to get me which then makes me hungry.Vicious cycle huh? I know you will do well. I just wish time would hurry a little then again I guess it will be soon enough.Hung in there I think with all the nice people who are out there who have been there and done that will really be a big help for both of us.Good luck to you! Peg.

Ok, I just added a signature, but I'm not sure if it worked, so I'll try posting and see if it pops up how I want it.

Just an fyi for some of you out there I tried the Unjury Protein Powder today unflavored and it works great it has 20g pro. per scoop and will mix with hot or cold foods, just follow the instructions on container. they also have flavors like chicken Soup and strawberry sorbet I will try them soon I got these in one serving pkgs. and the unflavored in larger amounts. No after taste and helps the liquids be more satisfying and filling without the bubbly felling of the "Milkshakes" Welcome to the UNJURY Homepage. Hope this helps. Peg

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.

      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!!
