ShelbyD 0 Posted August 4, 2008 half2bwhole, I am getting banded August 6th too! How is your pre op diet going? I am finally starting to get used to not eating solid food. It was very difficult last night when my kids decided to make popcorn...one of my favorites and it smells so good! Other than that I'm doing ok. Good luck to you Wednesday!

jolinbrown 0 Posted August 4, 2008 1 more week for me. The clock is running and I'm counting days. I'm starting to get comfortable with the pre-op, nothing but liquids (600 calories a day) for almost a week. This is going to be a good thing. Already my blood pressure is lower and my blood sugar is lower too 80~90. John .... the JO of JOLIN date of ban -8/11/08 EL Dorado, AR Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SeeShell 0 Posted August 4, 2008 Hello, I just started my 3 day pre-op diet of all liquids. I am drinking chocolate Medifast shakes and just had a sugar free popsicle. Why yes I am still hungry...LOL But I will live. My date is this Thursday Aug. 7th! I am very excited to start this new chapter in my life. Good Luck all!

pinkposey 0 Posted August 4, 2008 I am getting banded tomorrow, 8/5/08. I'm starting to get very nervous. I am "Super big" at 424 lbs., and have very arthritic knees. I cannot walk long distances or stand for very long, as it is, so I'm nervous about being able to walk enough after the surgery to ward off gas, bloodclots, etc. Wish me well!:thumbup: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
