Hi Everyone. Im due to be banded soon (17.10) and went for my pre-op assessment today. I'm feeling excited and nervous - this procedure is not that common yet in the UK, and I dont know ANYONE personally who's had it done. So Im hoping you guys will be able to help me on my way !(please?).

I have to go on a Fat Free diet from now until the op - any good recipies / ideas that may help me with this?

I'm enjoying looking around the site, and am picking up stuff as I go, so hopefully I'll be a seasoned pro before I know it.

Take care

Julie

Hi Julie and welcome to LBT! Congratulations on your decision to get banded. I suggest checking out the food forum. There are stickies at the top for every stage of banding. We also have a reciepe forum that you may enjoy.

Hi Julie,

Yes, definitely check out the food forums. Just as a teaser though, my favorite fat free item is fat free black Beans with salsa and fat free sour cream with a little fat free cheese on top. It's good for the mushy stage too. YUM!

You're going to do great. Congratulations on making the decision to get banded.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
