The more you are able to move, the quicker the soreness will go away. My surgery is June 13th so I will be joining the ranks soon!

Good luck to all!!!

Mocha Lala - we are being banded the same day! I still need a buddy, interested?

That sounds good! I just saw your post sorry it took so long! I've had some struggle with the 2 week diet. It is a challenge but the end result will be worth it!

This is my first post. I start my pre opp diet on saturday, and my surgery is on june 29 in toronto, canada. I am exicted and nerves all in one but i know i can do it with the help of my husband and my family. I have to do a pre opp diet for three weeks. i have three Protein Shakes a day and low calarie veggies. I was told it is to try to get ride of up to 25% of fat in your liver to make the surgery safer.

Looking forward to getting to know you. Sounds like you have a longer pre-op diet than me but we can do this!!

      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.
