soccermom10 0 Posted December 1, 2010 I am getting banded on December 7th. I have mixed feelings about the whole process but I am determined to see it through. Haiting the liquid diet!!! The shakes are so awful and I am finding it very difficult to choke them down. I have resorted to one egg a day in place of one of my four shakes. I also don't mind the chicken Soup but beyond that I struggle. I am wondering what happens if you don't follow the diet completely? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The liquid diet was horrable the first couple days especially over thanksgiving! But its getting easier! I kinda like my shakes. I have cheated a couple times! I am trying to be really strict on the diet since the date is getting closer. I don't want food in my system when I am trying to recover nor do I want to have problems being constapated after surgery with a sore stomach. My surgery is in Spartenburg, SC. I think once we make it past the first two weeks, it should hopefully start to get easier. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
malexander 0 Posted December 3, 2010 I am also getting banded on December 7th! We need to be friends, ladies! My doctor isn't as particular. He says two shakes a day and then one sensible meal. I can only do one shake and two sensible meals. I am a teacher and I get extremely light headed if I do not eat. I am getting really excited but I have some major negativity surrounding me. I hate the negativity because it is making me more nervous. I wish it was Tuesday right now!!! I'm ready for a major life change. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
