I have a question. I am starting my two week pre op diet tomorrow & am wondering if those of you that say you did not have a pre op diet had laparoscopic or open surgery. The way I understand it the pre op diet is to reduce the size of the liver so that it is easier for the surgeon to place the band. I could understand not having to reduce the size of the liver for open surgery. Just curious (and a little bitter that some people dont have to do the pre op diet! LOL)

I haven't even gotten the band yet (scheduled for March 1) and I've already started getting the haters. I wish I had only told my Mom & my Husband. Oh well, ~~mmmm shake them haters off, shake them haters off!!~~ lol
