Pending cordination with the proctor and my surgeon, I will be banded on either the 8th or the 22nd of September! Wow! So exciting to finally be this close!

Found out I will be on a two week liquid pre-op diet though. That will be crumby but I have just one thing to say about it.....Bring it on, baby, cuz I am ready to get healthy! Woohoo!

Hi,

My banding is near and I can hardly wait. This thread looks like a great place to find the support we may all need through this journey. I wish all of us the best of luck.

can anyone tell me what they are eating/drinking for their pre-op?

My pre-op diet is two shakes (Breakfast, lunch) plus

lunch: a piece of fruit

snack: no-fat cottage cheese 1/2 cup, low-fat yogurt smoothy, OR a light yogurt

dinner: 4 oz of lean turkey, chicken, roast beef or ham on 2 slices of low fat whole wheat bread, (mustard or no-fat salad dressing) OR a shake, and 1/2 cup V8 or Tomato juice

Non-starchy veggies unlimited: I've eaten spinach, peppers, tomatoes, cucumbers, few baby carrots - usually in a salad w/ vinegar, lemon juice and splenda

Water and/or no calorie/caffeine drinks
