I am scheduled for Wednesday at 8 am. I have finished 6 days of liquids and feel drained. I have no cravings and am concered about tomorrow's clear liquid day and the next two weeks. I chewed some ice chips tonight and that helped. Any other suggestions as I am getting nervous about my surgery. Help

i was super nervous right before, did not get any sleep the night before. yes the Clear Liquids suck, but the band is worth it to me. the 2 weeks after surgery is called "banders hell". i was so happy when i could have Soup. lol! tasted fantastic. i would not trade this band for anything. it is my tool to help me.

Cant help but think if 2 weeks AFTeR surgery are banders hell then the 2 week liquid diet leading to it must be the road to hell!

Ready to go, I am with you. Although my prediet was not completely liquid, it was mainly so. Today has not been as hard as I thought on Clear Liquids, maybe it is just the excitement of knowing tomorrow is surgery day is taking care of that. I just had some SF Jello when I was getting a bit hungry after drinking 4 oz of juice, so I feel better. Had done fine until the carbs in the juice. Those carbs can be wickedly evil little hunger drivers. Hope we both have a good day tomorrow and come back to post as official bandsters afterward.

Well I did it and got home this morning. I feel lost. Moving plenty so gas is slowly disappearing. I am not interested in eating anything. I had a Protein Drink this afternoon and will have another one tonight. I had Soup and an ice this morning at the hospital so I guess looking back, I did ok on my first day of liquids after. Can believe that that part is all over. The research, classes, tests surgery all done. Now I try to sleep and see how I feel tomorrow.
