I didn’t know it would be so hard to do this diet. I also didn’t know I was this addicted to food. I started a small diet before this but I was still able to eat food. I glad that there are groups like this and group meeting that are there to help. And the fact that I do have a good support system at home

I feel your pain I’m on day six and I can’t stop thinking of food but I must admit it’s been easier than I thought as I am able to control myself and stick to the diet.

i am avoiding going places and seeing people.

what kind of pre op diet are you all on?

Im currently having 3 shakes a day, unlimited “free vegetables” and 2 Litres of Water.

Surgery is 5th February for lap band

I'm on complete liquid...ugh! shakes, broth, two low fat cream Soups a day, sugar free Jello and sugar free popsicles and sugar free Crystal light...it's been a challenge at times but I've really done better than I thought I would. I've suck to it for 6 days now and lost 13lbs. My surgery is Monday and I'm excited/nervous but ready!

I understand. It's tough. But remember. We didn't get this way overnight. It is hard. It is the hardest thing we have to go through. But we can do it and take one step at a time.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
