Welcome to LapBandTalk!

I think the Post-op Support section would be a great place to ask your questions, if you don't get a good response here. We also have an Exercise & Fitness section and a Nutrition section.

Welcome to this very informative forum, there is a lot of info on all things to do with lap bands here and lots of very helpful supportive people too.

I had my band back in November and am really delighted with it, I have lost 50lbs since the start of my journey including the pre-op diet.

Regarding diet, different surgeons give different advice so you are really bestfollowing the diet your surgeon or dietician gave you. I guess you are at the sloppy/mushy stage right now.

Best of luck to you, I wolud suggest you search other threads and you will find the information you are looking for.

      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.
