i hAd the band 3 yrs ago. i now have the bypass. i dont recommend the band. it can easily stretch and make it hard to restrict. i kive the gastric cuz its always restricting. snd ive lost 30lbs in 3 weeks. i bever saw results like tgmhat wirh the band. my insurance actually stopped approving the band cuz too many people switched to rny.

Trouble With Pre Op Diet
law8486 replied to berniec's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
you will be fine if you slipped up and had chicken. it will be digested and gone in a week. i broke down and had a basic salad 2 night before surgery. lettuce tomatos and cucumbers with fat free honey mustard dressing lol. didnt make a difference. you just need to get in the habit of a liquid diet so it doesnt shock u right after surgery. but trust me, you wont want solids at all. -
