Love your enthusiasm and commitment. You will be just fine! Good luck!

I was banded on the 28th of March and I am so thrilled and you will be also, relax and enjoy.

Every doctor/hospital have different diets. I went to a large Boston hospital and just looked up the diet in the book they gave me. 3 meal replacements a day and 1 real meal that includes: 4 oz. protein, 1 carb, 1 veggie, 1 fruit, 1 dairy, 1 fat.I had no problem sticking to this. I spread my real meal between 4-7pm and it made me feel great. I still have my salad about 1-2 hours before my dinner and that way I get in my veggies and protein when I do have dinner. Tonight I am having a salad and later on salmon and veggies.
​ Congratulations on your up coming band!

I was the same way. My surgery was my first real surgery as well. I'm 2 1/2 weeks post-op and the surgery itself was a piece of cake. My uncomfortable moments were from the gas they fill you with before they get in there. It took me almost two weeks to feel better and finally feel that it was all gone. I have my post-op appointment this week and maybe my first fill. We have a long road ahead of us but with this lap band as a tool, we can do it!
