Well I finally have made my mind up and my surgery date is Oct. 23, 2008. I am looking forward to this day but the two week liquid pre-op diet is a killer. I know this diet is extremely important but what if I slip and eat something that is not allowed.

The post-op diet that my doctor prescribed was the same as the pre-op diet. This is to help your somach heal. But truley the post-op is not as bad as pre-op. I guess by this time you are use to liquids and you are experiencing the result of banding. Good luck and I wish you well.

Well I'm back! One week post-op and I feel great! Can't wait til I return for my post-op appointment so I can get to exercising. I have been walking daily but would like to pick up the pace. For those of you who are considering lapband, it has been a blessing.

Hey everyone --- I was banded on Thursday oct. 23 and the surgery went well. I am back at work today (Monday). I am a little sore but nothing I can't handle. I will more than likey have to take a my pain meds tonight. I feel that this has been the biggest and best decision with regard to weight loss.

Thanks for the advise. I have been on the pre-op diet for six days now and each day is a little better than the last. I still have eight days to go. Not so bad at work but at home and the weekends are tough. I have a feeling I’m going to need a lot of support.

Ok, I'm back. I have set the date for the band placement. It will be in October 23, 2008. Now for this liquid diet--- Hard but necessary. :laugh: -
Ok I have done everything that is required by the insurance company. Now I am just waiting for the approval. While waiting had to have gallbladder surgery. Now am questioning my decision due to postop pain. Help calm my concerns. :cry_smile:
