I wish I had made this decision earlier. I am so excited, my date is next Tuesday the 17th!!!

I too am on Clear Liquids. This is what I usually have everyday & lots of Water. The days I don't drink enough Water my loss is less. My Dr. also has me on 9 different Vitamin suppliments. I have only been able to take 4 of them so far b/c I couldn't find the other 5 in the form that I need them.

San Diego ,I got off the Clear Liquids on week 2. I started Protein Shakes, fat free Jello puddings, and applesauce.I had to because i was out of energy and starved. I can see why you are upset,i have lost 23lbs since being banded on 05/29/2008.
