Hi There

Thanks for your reply. I guess we are going with different companies though. I am going wo Chimay to be banded by Dr Mignon.

As were having it at the same time it would be great to keep in touch though.

Hi Mike

Good to hear from you again. As we're being banded at the same time it would be great to share our experiences. I Have problems with my email account at the moment so the one I'm giving you is my partners but feel free to mail me on it.

Are you on a horrible pre-surgery diet at the moment? I can only eat yogurt and I'm really struggling. I phoned the clinic and they said I could have a bit of meat and salad/veg etc. so things have been a lot better today.

Love Chelle xx

      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.
