You can do this. Mine was 2 weeks and was rough at times, but so worth it. It enabled my liver to shrink, which my dr said helped the surgery go "beautifully". I am so happy!

You all will do great. Believe in yourselves and stick it out!

Thank you! You are so sweet! I am feeling great actually. It still hurts to get up and down, but it is very tolerable. I will say this is much better than i expected. I am thrilled to be banded. .

I did two weeks liquid diet prior to surgery, however I was unable to do it, on day five I got soo hungry I gave in. I began eating one 12 " grinder from subway a day. I drank liquids all day and then around 6pm I ate a grinder. I did this up until four days before surgery in which I only drank protien shakes for the last four days. The whole idea is to shrink are liver. My doctor told me just to not gain weight and try to loose some because the fat would come off my stomache area first. I lost ten pounds doing it this way and my surgery went fine!! Good luck. I defiantly know how hard it is to liquid fast, trust me I cried the first five days!!

[Iruthie20 24]

Ooh, where I live there is a place called subway...it's where you buy subs that are fresh..I got a chicken one that was 12 inches each day...loaded with fresh veggies. It really filled me up and satisfied my hunger each day
