London calling

[Natalie:) 0]

Hi all - I am 34yrs old, I live just outside London and I am due to be banded on 21st January - scary :huh2:. I start my pre-op diet on Thursday, so I would be grateful for any suggestions of what to eat - is it totally fat-free, or are we allowed a trace of fat?

I am really excited, but I am also very nervous. I have told very few people, but the ones I have told have been very supportive. I am looking forward to 'speaking' to you all and taking this journey with you. :tongue2:

Hello Natalie!

Has your surgeon given you directions on what you should be eating pre banding?

If he/she says no fat, than no fat it is. If not, follow what you are being told.

As hard as the next few weeks will be, believe me when I tell you that it will fade into distant memory as you move through the phases of being banded.

Welcome to the boards. Nice to meet you.
