I can't wait to get my lap band on February 19th. I have been lurking around this forum for a while and decided to finally jump in and post. Look forward to being a part of the community. :(

I think I might be a Feb Bandster too. I am HOPEFULL! I have my last appointments on January 15th. So from what everyone has been telling me it will be 4 to 6 weeks from that date to Surgery day! So even if it takes 6 weeks I should still come in the tail end of Febuary.

How are you doing? I am so excited I could jump out of my skin. I told my husband last night that I want food to be a chore instead of a hobby....:wink2:!

Take Care!

Congratulations. I am being banded on the 20th, just a day later. :thumbup:

I wish you the very best. Remember it's going to be a whole new life after you are banded. I hear it is a lot of hard work but SO well worth it. I can't wait.

      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?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      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.
