May seems to be a very popular month! Do you think the surgery is gaining approval or more people are hearing about it? I was at the hospital getting my Pre-Op done and there was a story on CNN on the tv in the waiting room about the lap band. I wanted to scream- "hey, that is what I am here for", but I stopped myself!

At what point do you have to go on a liquid diet before surgery? Mine is just the day before.

Hi, I'm May 7 and I'm on the 2 week liquid preop. Everyone said your not hungry after day 3. They are wrong, but I'm getting through. As it gets close I'm getting a little nervous.

I will get my band on May 13. I start my liquid diet on Tuesday. I've been lurking for the past month or so, just reading everything I can.

I'm also scared, excited, nervous all wrapped up into my 5 ft tall size..

Hi

I have my PreOp lab work done on the 4th and surgery the next day. I have one concern--"I don't want to fail in losing weight one more time." I feel like this LB Forum will be such a help. I wasn't put on any diet pre surgery by my Dr. My Insur. has a Nurse you can call and she gives advice to Bariatric patients. She told me to cut down on portion size and drink lots of liquids.

Oh, and I got a Happy Birthday Wish Today from The Forum--Thank You dicev

I'm right here with ya, I go in at 9:00 am in Louisville, Ky on the 5th. I plan on having my last hooplaw on Saturday. It is Derby time here, so I am going to enjoy myself, hope to win a little money and then get my mind ready for Monday. Good luck on your surgery too!
