YAY FOR US!!!!! I have had a pre-op diet for the past 3 months. They make us slowly low carb to 15 carbs per meal, then liquids for 2 days. I am so SICK of this diet!!! Can't wait to get my band, but you know, I am getting nervous now. I'm shocked at that. Getting nervous. Protein drink too sweet? I don't think my tounge recognizes that term LOL!! Sorry, my computer has been crazy, we need to be band buddies and stick togeter! Good luck Noosh, let me know how you are doing so far.
