I was approved yesterday and my surgery date is July 2nd! So excited and after being stressed out waiting on approval now I'm stressed worried I won't have enough money for my up front costs! Ugh!

Hi, I will be banded July 12! Excited, but nervous. I start my liver reduction diet in one week. I get to drink Protein Shakes, which aren't bad. I already did the diet a few months ago and I was surprised how well the Protein shakes kept you full.

I received my second band June 27, 2012. I had been without a band for 1 year. Somehow I managed to gain almost 50#. The last week has been almost totally new. Hoping to develop a good support network this time. Good luck with the urgery. You are beginning a wonderful journey.

      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.
