I did propel gatorade packets, jello sugar-free (orange or green)...herbal teas, and thats it!! I had my band loosened the other day due to swelling and being overly tight (long story) So i gained ten lbs back!! OMG pray for me i don't want to gain back everything!! I go tuesday to get it fixed!

Hahaha. Yeah i'm breaking some of my bad habits now like drinking more water, cutting out on the carbonated drinks, etc. Yeah everyone has been saying that recovery after surgery isn't bad, that's a good thing. Yeah i have a lot of pajamas so i'm covered as far as the sleepers go. During your clear liquid stage what were you having besides water and chicken broth??

They aren't removing your brain!! You will be hungry! The ride home from the hospital i remember seeing a kfc sign...I don't even eat that crap...but knowing i couldn't...i got hungry.
The surg itself and recovery is a breeze. Its the not getting to eat for a while that is tricky. Make sure you have stuff to go while you are off work. Shopping, cleaning, activities to keep your mind off of food.
You might bleed on what ever clothes you wear from the hospital so make sure you don't care about them. Wear comfy nighty clothes so you aren't confined to your clothes.

No i haven't been banded yet... I'm getting all the pre-op stuff done. I have tried A LOT of different diets in the past but none helped with the weight really.. So I'm going to the next level. Everyone here has been so great and I actually feel like there is some HOPE!! I know you will continue to lose! you have come a long way already.
