    pre op fasting diet lap band

    I'm on my 3rd day of fasting and my doctor is allowing green crunchy veggies and salads with walden farms fat free dressing. Not the creamy ones though. Broccoli, Brussel sprouts, celery, tomatoes

    August banders

    Thank you so much Laura. I am prepared to do what I need to and look forward to my journey . I understand that the band is a tool to help you lose weight but it's not magic and you really have to manage the process. Look forward to connecting with you again!

    August banders

    Hi everyone. I am so happy I found this app as I am scheduled for lapband surgery on September 17th with Dr. Ren at NYU. This is the 3rd day of protein shakes and I have a wicked headache and of course, I am starving, lol. While I was at NYU yesterday ( I requested to meet with Dr. Ren one more time before I go in), there was a woman who was at reception and overheard her saying how happy she was with her results. I approached her and asked her if she got the band and she said, "I had the band taken out and had the bypass..the band doesn't work and didn't work for my friend..don't do it." I walked out of the office with tears in my eyes. I just need some reassurance from those of you who have been successful with the lapband as this woman set me back a bit. Thanks in advance to all!
