Congratulations!! How did your surgery go? My surgery is in 2 days, so I'm right behind you.

Congratulations and the best of luck to you!!!

I really like Unjury Chocolate Splendor, Chicken Soup, and Unflavored as well as some Syntrax Nectar flavors.

Great job on losing 4 stones!!!

Congrats!!! Glad everything went well!!

Congrats!! You have done awesome and an inspiration to many!! You should be proud!!

I'm not sure what I would do, but I was definitely disappointed with the band. I had great success and lost 120 pounds in 1 year, but then everything came crashing down and I started having lots of problems including several ulcers. So, ultimately I had to have it emptied...and gained all of the way back. I am, however, happy to say that on Friday I will be having the band to sleeve revision surgery.

I'm glad it doesn't hurt or bother you, but I would still go get that checked out.

Mayfield, ky Awesome. I'm in Kentucky also.

I'm not having surgery until Friday, but some things that are currently helping prepare me are: start walking (if you haven't already) buy and taste test several different protein powders/drinks to see which you like best clean out your house of items you know you shouldn't be eating (chocolate, chips, etc.) stop drinking caffeine start limiting sugar, caffeine, carbs, fat, etc. Read as many articles and books on your WLS as possible. It can only help.

Just 2 more days for me until surgery on Friday, November 20th.

Good luck to all 3 of you!!! I am 1 day behind you and have surgery on Friday..

Congrats and good luck!

Just 2 more days for me. Today starts the clear liquids.

Good luck!! You will be in my prayers.

Yeah one thing I like about the pre-op diet is that it helps prepare me for what's ahead.

Congrats and good luck!!! I am this Friday. Can't wait!!

You are having surgery on a very special day!!! December 21st is my birthday and the day that your new life begins. Congrats!!!

I am on Day 11 of my 2-week pre-op diet. It consists of mostly liquids, low carb, no sugar, low fat, and high Protein. Also has to be no more than 500-700 calories per day. Just 3 more days for me until surgery.

And I was feeling guilty that I wanted to eat an Apple...that's right...an Apple as my last meal tonight before I am on 2 days of only Clear Liquids. I don't feel so guilty for wanting to eat an apple after reading this thread. So thanks!!! lol.

I have to admit that I'm jealous of all of you that didn't have to do the pre-op diet or were able to consume a lot more calories than I am allowed. I have to be on mostly liquids and between 500-700 calories per day with very low carbs, no sugar, and very low fat. I am now on Day 11 and just 3 more days to go until my surgery.

That is great news!!! Congrats!!!

That's awesome that all of you guys are doing it together!!! Good luck to you!!! My wife and I will both be having the sleeve surgery as well. I am this Friday and she is in December. So excited to start this journey together!!

Good luck to you!! You are in my thoughts and prayers. I am right behind you on Friday.

Thanks so much. Good luck to you as well!! 3 more days for me!!!
