Hi There, I originally had Dr. Nazarian for my surgeon then I was switched to Dr. Feiz same group. I hope to be banded by the end of March. Please let me know how you are doing. Nicole is so great in getting everything going for me. Did you have to be on a pre diet before surgery? I hear everyone talking about this and it was never even mentioned to me or by Elana the nutrionist. Thanks, Cheryl

Congratulations to everyone on their BAnd-Day! I am on day 4 post surgery, I can honestly say it has not been all that bad... I have not gotten sick at all and my incisions are healing great! I am only having some chest pain now which is normal and a little gas pain in my shoulder which the gas x strips really help (make sure u take to the hospital with you) and last night i slept all through the night without waking up 4 or 5 times.... GOod LuCk to Everyone! Oh and by the way I am down 14.5 total but 7lbs from the morning of my surgery! YEAH Me!:confused:

      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.
