I'm being banded tomorrow too. I am excited, but also so nervous. I'm a little nervous about the surgery, but mostly I'm thinking and worring about how I will feel after surgery. I hope I will be able to do well with all the diet stuff. I just having normal pre-surgery worries I'm sure. Good luck and Gods Blessings on everyone getting banded soon, and to those of you who already started their new life!:clap2:

Evening October Banders,

I was banded on 10/19 and everything went great!! I'm so thrilled with my doctor and everyone that helped me through surgery. The first 2 days for me were really rough, but now on day 6 I'm doing MUCH BETTER. Would love to be able to move on to mushies and such, but my doctor has a 2 week post op liquid diet. It's murder, shake, broth, applesauce, Jello, popsicle, shake, broth, applesauce, Jello, popsicle, shake, broth... I want something different!!! The band is one of the greatest things in my life so far and I'm so glad I got it. I look forward to losing more weight and being able to have children.

Goodnight all

      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.
