I am starting to get nervous about my upcoming banding. I start my Pre opp diet next friday. It will two weeks of Opti fast then have surgery on July 6. I am thinking if I am doing the right thing. Deep down I know I am and my hubby is being very supportive and only want me to be happy and healhy. Any one else get nervous a couple of weeks out.

Many people have posted they are nervous and some want to bail. I wasn't nervous because I knew this was the only avenue left for me to be what I wanted to be. if you're sure, there is no doubt. If you think you have other ways to lose weight, maybe you should try those first?

But, if you've tried them(most of us have), make that commitment and erase all doubts.

i am getting banded july 6th too. i don't know what to expect and i have never had surgery so that part makes me nervous. i just hope it works. i have faith it will based on this forum and all the success stories, but still it crosses my mind that i won't lose weight. i am sure i will be more nervous as it gets closer. right now i'm kind of just trying to preoccupy my mind and prepare..

I'm due for surgery July 5th and I feel the same way. I'm so excited but also the knowledge and tiny fear about adjustments physically and emotionally...but the reasons to have it far outweigh my fears...but acknowledging them is a good thing I think?

      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.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
