Awesome job Monica! You are an inspiration to everyone!

I purchased papaya enzyme really cheap at Walmart

Hello everyone, I started the pre-op diet today. My doctors office said to have one regular meal a day, like 4oz of chicken and green veggies. When I called the office to clarify the amount of veggies I could have a day, I was told 2 servings per day. What are all of you doing? Are you eating extra veggies or only a small amount a day?

Thank you so much for the encouragement. I came at the best time because it's my first day of this diet and I'm struggling and feeling like I'm going to fail. So thanks again!

Thank you for your responses. I guess I was hoping I could have unlimited

Can anyone who has had lap band surgery tell me if the constant urge to eat subsides after surgery? My scheduled surgery date is on 4/26 and I'm afraid to fail at yet another diet.

Thank you everyone for your input, it's a big help to me!

Would you mind sending it to me too? claudia8499@gmail.com

Has anyone been told they must stop smoking prior to surgery? No one has mentioned it to me yet. I want to quit, but I'm just curious.

Thank you so much for your response. It's so nice to hear about how everyone else is doing and their experiences.

This is the first time I've ever posted on a message board so bear with me. I had my first appointment with the bariatric surgeons office today. I assumed it would be a long process prior to getting the band, however I should be getting it in April. I am on antidepressants and had general surgery 10 years ago and I suffered severe anxiety afterward. I'm worried about going through that again. I was wondering if anyone out there had similar problems and had any suggestions. Thank you
