Cooper 123 don't pick on me or I might have to make your # public to all these women. They see how sexy you are!

I have to tell you a secret. I added lean protein. Even if it's one egg and some veggies. I'm sorry but if it makes a difference in my liver so be it. I'm not morbidly obese. Let the LBT people crucify me if they must but it's my body!

I will have alot but by time I won't need them you will probs be even smaller! Thats what I wear now!

Okay well I don't want to waste my time reading something like this. But I guess I will just have to deal with strange posts popping up not related to lapband weightloss, or really making any sense at all.

What are you allowed on your preop diet?

Ketosis can give you headaches as well as caffeine withdrawl. I didn't have to give up caffeine. I too have had a dull headache. I miss thinking about what to eat for lunch and dinner. I'm on day 6. You can do it. Just think of the results!

I'm sure you will be fine. I think the fatty liver story is really few and far between. I mean they want you to loose a few LB's they know we can't lose weight for the sake of losing so they want us to have another reason. I'm sure some livers are HUGE. I'm sure a lot of people would gorge before the surgery if there was no preop diet thinking well it's the last few weeks before the band. Follow the diet. I've cheated not going to lie. I know some diets allow lean protein. I'm only allowed shakes. I have lean protein once a day.OOOOOH I know scandelous. I'm sure I will be fine. Relax and you will be fine! Skinny in no time!

You are my hero! I pray this is how my surgery goes! Thanks for the uplifting post. All too often I think the people with problems post more then not!

I would guess if it went through your hole you will be fine.

I know this is my opinion only but my doc moves us to mushies after a week. If you need some food have it. You know your body. Have some potatoes or something. If you start slow you will be okay.

Maybe there should be a different category for religious propaganda. This doesn't seem like general lap band surgery thread worthy.

Hello can someone please tell me how you were diagnosed with PCOS? My doc has always kept me on BC and said in passing he things i have PCOS. I have never gotten a period on my own. Please share your experience.

Not that I have experience but I'm sure those that know anything would like to know your current diet and exercise regime. Cograts on your success so far. That is really amazing!

What is this supposed to mean?

I'm on day 4 and i haven't been hungry. Granted I miss eating. I would recommend drinking more protein till you are satiated. This isn't supposed to be torture.

I'm not hungry just miss tasting good food. I have indulged enough in life and if this is what I have to do I deserve it. With every commercial I see good food I get stronger. That's how I think of it anyway.

Just drank my liquid chocolate banana shake. Actually I loved it. I'm using bariatric advantage meal replacements. So thrilled it tastes good!

My sister is going through this process with me. She is wondering if Mirena needs to come out before surgery. I know you have to stop oral contraceptives but do you need to have Mirena taken out? Obviously she will ask her Dr. Just wondering ahead of time what you guys think!

Awwe well I don't mind it at all! I guess I'm lucky!

If you feel dehydrated go to the ER and get a bag of fluid!

Shake one down. 59 more to go lol Didn't taste half bad. My doc uses bariatric advantage.

Just left LIfe after lap band removal thread. I'm sick to my stomach from some of their stories. I know they are in the monority. I should stay away from there and read all of your stories. I'm two weeks from surgery. It's getting done scary thoughts or not.

If you don't mind me asking what she refused to do?

Oh boy. That is serious !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I just started a northern Illinois Chicago Burb group. Have you guys gotten together yet?
