Hi there! My name is Nikkee and my lapband surgery is set for May 13th, 2005 (Yuck friday the 13th!). Dr. Hilario Juarez will be performing my surgery in Phoenix, AZ. I am grateful for this forum because you all have given me the insight that I need to know before and after surgery and what to expect over time. I'm kinda nervous, but all and all I am very excited and ready to start my life anew.

Cool avatar and sig Nikkee! Well done! And welcome to LBT. It's a great place to be.

Wow, just one more day till Band day! Think of the 13th as a good sign, and even better that it's a Friday! We only get those a few times a year...it's GOOD!

Be sure to post when you get home...blessings to you for a great surgery and smooth recovery.

      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?

      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.
