Hi I'm now day 5 post op. Have managed some very small amounts of smooth soup and a very thin fat free yogurt yesterday. Before that it was just water only as I didn't really have an appetite at all. I'm forcing myself to eat something as I do feel quite dizzy at times. I'm not sure if any of you feel the same but I'm so nervous as to how much to eat as if you eat too much you will be sick and dry heave etc so I don't want to eat hardly anything just in case! Feeling heaps better today- have had some pain the last few days but have been as mobile as possible and helped round the house with as much as I can reach! Horrible cough though which is driving me nuts as it's really hard to cough due to all the wounds pulling!! Overall I'm so shocked with how it's going so far- really thought it would be harder than this! I'm currently 8kg since the start of the liver diet 10 days pre op and so down to now 96kg. Xx

I have just weighed myself for the last time befor surgery and I have lost 4kg in 10 days doing the liver diet (no shakes involved-lots of veg and protein)

Thank you so much for the feedback! Today is the day! Slept very poorly but that is to be expected I suppose! So excited as I feel like this is my chance to become me again!! I am just having my breakfast now and then Nothing further! I don't have an operating time yet but my admission time is 12:00 in 5 hours time!! Best get packing! Did anyone measure themselves and take lots of before pictures for reference later on? Xx

Very anxious and nervous about my lap band surgery tomorrow! Any advice or info would be lovely! Thanks xx

I am having my surgery tomorrow as well!! I have to be admitted at 12 so NBM from 06:30! Good luck to you! I'm so nervous about the surgery!! Xx
