Getting my band June 6! Got my info packet yesterday, and whew! It's starting to hit me how sucky the 2 week liquid diet is going to be. I just keep telling myself it's the best thing I can do for myself!

I have my last weight in May 10th and I'm hoping my insurance does not take long to approve so I might be able to be banded in June! Fingers crossed cause it feels like I have been waiting forever!

Wow, I only have to do three days of a liquid diet. My surgery is May 11 and I have to start the liquids on the Sunday prior to the surgery. I'm thinking it's going to be horrible for the few days - two weeks - wow!! Yes, we have to remember this is all worth it in the end.

Hi there! This is my very first post, but have been following along for a while now. I scheduled my band date on June 1st! I have been wanting to get lap band for a while and my Dear Friend has sent 21 people to see the DR I am going to in Mexico. I have seen much success and and excited to have it done. I got a great discount due to the referral from my "2nd mom/ friend." I am 31yrs old, 5'8 and have a BMI of 35. I know it is time to take control of the rest of my life. Thanks for listening.

I am getting banded June 14th! A simple 37 days!!! I start my 4 week pre-operative Optifast on May 19th, so I am getting really excited counting down my days of eating!

Hope to enjoy this journey with everyone to the very fullest.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
