Annette 9/2012 15 Posted June 2, 2012 Hi- I have been on a calorie restriction since I met with the doctor and the nutritionist to shrink my liver :wub: for Lapband surgery in September 2012, she wanted me to loose 10 lbs. I have been working out-the journey is hard-keep it up.! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
taarific 5 Posted June 2, 2012 No you won't be refused, the docs just want you to lose something before u go in. Good luck with ur surgery!!! Helpful tip: bring a pillow with u for the ride home and keep it against your sutchers (sp?) it will absorb the shock from driving cuz if you don't, u will feel every bump in the road!!!
