I start my liquid diet tomorrow for two weeks. I have my surgery on the 27 of March I am so excited. I hope that this liquid diet go smoothly. THE doctor said I can have one protein shake in the morning and one for lunch and for dinner I can have a four ounces of lean meat with a half of cup of vegetables.

Yes everything is going fine. I talk to my doctor today and he told me more thing I can try.

Congratulations on the wl. I haven't got on the scale yet. I am making myself drink those protien shakes they are nasty!! I haven't found one that I like.Which one are you drinking?

I am struggling already with this liquid diet and its only day one. I really need some help!

This my first day of my pre operative diet. I have been thinking about food all day long. My doctor say I can have two protein shake and one meal that consist of 4 to 6 oz of lean meat with a half of cup of vegetable. This will be a long 2 weeks amd am scared that I will fail. I hope tomorrow be better

Omg!! Am sorry to hear that

We are getting banded on the same day good luck!!!

I am feeling the same way. Just pray about and you will feel much better!!!

Hello this is my first post and i been reading everyone post all week long and this has really help me to make up my mind on getting the lap band and i cant wait to start my journey!! My name is Wilona I am 26. I am married with two beautiful girls ages 6 and 4. I have been reading information about the lap band for a year now and am ready but the only thing is the my family and friends dont support my decision. The only person who supports me is my husband and i really dont think he want me to have this procedure done. I will be paying for my surgery out of pocket without the help of no one. Its depressing when you don't have your family and friends support. I know that this surgery will help me with my weight loss and I plan on getting the lap band with or without anyone support. I realize that its my health and my money that I work hard for. I plan on going to a seminar on 2/12. I AM SO EXCITED!!!

I cant wait to get my LB. This give me hope. Could you please share with me what you are doing.

I had the same problem with some of my friends and family. I decided to not discuss my decision on getting the lap band with them any more. Follow your heart because at the end of the day it's your health not hers.

I really didnt want to think that they are jealous but deep down I believe they are. The bad part I always support them when they do things. I would like to thank you all for sharing your story. Thanks

I really dont know why my friends are not happy for me. I know we all are having trouble with our weight. I am the only one who chosen to do surgery. My family think that its cost to much but I dont think so. I feel that if I have the money. I have tried and tired to explain it to them and I am tired of all the negative talk.I am just going to get the surgery and let no one know but my husband.
