Well I'm currently in charge of my wife's phone and I was just reading through all these posts from all you ladies, I wish you all the best. My wife is in recovery now, the doctor came out and said everything went better than he could have expected.

I'm waiting to see her now, shouldn't be too much longer.

Good luck ladies and I'm glad my wife has a support group here to help her in her journey.

I'm being banded on June 21st. Starting my Pre-Op diet on June 7th. Admittedly nervous about the pre-op diet :unsure: but know that it will be worth it in the end.

My surgery went very well today. They got me all ready with the IV and in my gown by 11:00 am and took me down to the operating room, which was freezing, but as soon as they "knocked me out" I woke up in the recovery room. I had the best recovery nurses. The only "painful" parts was the numbing agent for the IV which just stung a little, and It felt funny to breathe, like a good bit of pressure on my chest when I woke up but the nurses took awesome care of me and made sure I was comfortable until i got in my room. My incisions are sore but other than that I'm doing great! Already been up walkin around and sipping Water. you will do great! Try not to stress or worry about the surgery part none of it is bad enough to not get the band. I am so happy I'm staying over night. I think it makes. Difference from what I've read and now experiencing. Good luck! I'll continue to share tomorrow how I feel and so forth!

      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.
