I am new here and am just looking for a support outlet! I am having my Lap Band surgery February 17, 2011. I am excited beyond words for this wonderful step towards a new healthier me, but on the same token, I am so nervous. It's not the actual surgery that is getting to me, it is my 10 day pre-op all liquid diet. I know it seems crazy that I would be more stressed about that part instead of the actual procedure, but there it is. Is/Has anyone else felt this way? Any words of advice or encouragement? What were some of your recipes for the liquid diet? Thank you all so much! I am looking forward to chatting with all of you!
