Hello everyone. Just wanted to wish everyone on deck tomorrow good luck. I am now 2 days post op and feeling great. Still have no pain. Had an alergic reaction to something they used during surgery last night when I got home and had to go to the ER to be checked out because I had a very slight fever (99.4) and a red rash on my face and upper chest. The doctor gave me a steroid creme and sent me on my way. Called my band doctors office today to ensure this was ok to use and they told me yes. They also told me not to worry about a fever unless is gets to be 101 or 102. I have had no pains yet and the bowels started moving again yesterday so everything seems to be getting back to normal already. WHEWWWWW!!

I went to town today with DH to the store but had to take a nap :bored when I got home. The trip really tuckered me out. My stomach keeps making these really loud grumbling rumbling noises today. I have read several times on here that others have had the same thing so it must be normal.

I can't believe how good this whole thing has gone for me this far. I did gain though. I have lost 2 lbs of what I gained back today though :whoo:. They told me that was just from all the fluids they pumped into me at the hospital. I was able to get all 3 of my Boost Breeze in today so I at least got my Proteins in. I am sipping on some diluted apple juice now and have had 32 oz of Water so I am doing well with the fluids.

I hope everyone else is doing great. We are almost here now. Congratulations everyone!!!!!

Thanks Jeanie & Dini,

I needed the hugs & kisses!!!!

Yes, I'm being banded in Toronto. The surgeon is Canada's founding lapband surgeon. He's pioneered it here, done more than 2000 lapbands in the last 7 years (including my best friend).

My DH is coming with me, and so far seems remarkaly calm... he's usually the worrier, not me. Of course, I;m probably worth more dead than alive! LOL. Seriously, I'm proud of his composure right now.

Ok, talking about it helps. I'm starting to calm down. I really can't wait to wake up in recovery though. Just like Sunny's tag line... "let's get this show on the road" :car:

      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.
