Good luck , it is all worth the journey . I was banded April 25, 2012 and go for my first fill June 5. As of today I'm down 26lbs. God is great and knows where we need to be .

Good for you! That pre-op diet was tough. I think post-op has been easier than that pre-op diet so far. Remember it is a temporary phase- you will get to eat again. You can do it. Everyday is one day closer and it will be here before you know it.

Through Christ all things are possible! Congrats on your 9 lbs lost. Can I ask what brand Protein shakes you are drinking? I'm shopping around now and trying them to see what I can tolerate. I tried EAS Advatage and it was nasty and litteraly almost puked it up, couldn'd finish it. Of course I'm not on the pre-op diet yet but supplementing a meal with a shake at this point to try them out. I wish you the best of luck, I know you will do great.

Hang is there. Remember He will never leave you nor forsake you. He wants you to be successful too. How great to know that this is going to make for a better life. Praise God for medical help that will help us be healthy. Praying for your strength through this process.

I start my pre op diet on Saturday. My Surgery is on June 4th.

Believe it or not, the pre-op diet is so helpful in getting you ready for the surgery. I had my surgery on Monday and not to toot my own horn, but I followed my pre-op diet down to a t. It helped me not be as hungry after a few days so now that I am post-op, I have a very small appetite.

You can do it!
