2nd Day Pre-Op Diet-Harder Than I Thought
poochie replied to wishmeluck13's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
with your weight at 195 you do not have to go on a pre-op diet.you can do the one day fasting and then have your surgery.i was 205 lbs when i had my surgery .i wasn't told to go on any pre-op diets at all.i'm alive and well.good luck and keep us posted. -
My Surgery Was $8,500.00.i Got The Best Treatment At Hospital Angeles.he Is Great.good Luck.

2nd Day Pre-Op Diet-Harder Than I Thought
poochie replied to wishmeluck13's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
honey,don't beat yourself up.i had my surgery without a pre-op diet.everything went well.i just fasted eight hours before my surgery.but everybody is different.have some soup,something light,even a salad.you'll be just fine. -
you are just healing.three weeks your band is not tight at all,so you can have more of your hamburger.remember you need more protein.more protein is the way to go first.don't be afraid.i had my surgery on the 7th of this month june and i have no restriction at all.i am hungry ,so i eat every two hours,just alittle.
