I was banded in Melbourne on 12th December so am 2 days ahead, how did you go with Christmas day and no solids! I have not really told my family, so spent the day being inconspicuous (I got away with it, but everyone said how fabulous I looked, I have lost about 5-6 kg)

Hi CCW, welcome. Its good here. I am having the surgery on Feb 2nd. I am so scared and anxious about it, that I have already had one big panic attack, and am considering asking my GP to put me on Xanax just to see me through all this. I rarely take this kind of medication.

I know it is for my health though. I wish you all the best in your weight loss journey. Susannah

:faint: Hi I'm new too and also from Melbourne Victoria. New to lapband and internet chatting! Have been reading through lots of threads, and have found the answers to lots of my worries. I was banded on 19.12.06, so "enjoyed" a strawberry smoothie" for Xmas lunch. Been quit sore, so was worried something was wrong- then read that others had the same problem. Been to reluctant to contact the surgeon, as I was feeling like a big wimp! Do hope this journey is successful, But I Know now where to turn for help. Thanx

      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.
