I'm really struggling with what to have for Breakfast on my ore-op diet. Low carb and low fat yet Able to be made in work with only a kettle and microwave. Any ideas anyone? 5 days to go!!!

hi lellow, so glad yours went well, did you have an incision very high up? as this is the one that is bruised. my port site is not hurting at all and i only had gas pains for aout half an hour 2 nights ago (in my stomach) the shoulder ones lasted about 2 days on and off. when did you weigh yourself? my next job after posting this is to update my ticker. do you feel virtually normal now, or not quite?

Has anyone had any trouble going up and down stairs after their surgery, that is one of biggest concerns. I just want to be prepared.

Yesterday I went to the hospital and pre-registered. It is real - the time is close. I had blood work EKG, Chest X-ray. Talk to my doctor and he said I was going to do great. I sure do have some wierd thoughts right now like regret or "what am I doing"!! but I will stay the course. My doctor put me on a 800 calorie diet high in Protein. With a big enphasis on sticking to Protein Shakes. I did eat some fish, and pudding but back to the protein shakes today. 5 more days. I have lost some weight but can't seem to change the ticker. This site has gotten quiet. I can tell the surgeries are starting. Hope all is doing well and can't wait to hear more from anyone who is just banded and how they feel and the experience they went through at the hospital. In detail would be great. Might make me quit worrying. :thumbup:

Hi I'm getting banded on Aug 14. I'm nervous how about you? kathy

Oh yeah, I'm nervous.

Right after the pre-op visit and into the first weekend of the pre-op diet I worried if I had made a good choice. Now 6 days away from surgery, I know this is what I need to do, the worry is gone and now just excitement.
