ibelieve 0 Posted January 19, 2009 Best of Luck to You! How are you doing with the pre-op requirements? Does your surgeon require an all liquid or mostly liquid diet? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ms.kelley-rn 0 Posted January 19, 2009 Good Luck to you yellowtopaz! I will be banded on January 27th and have started my pre op diet. So far, I'm fine as long as I stay "in the zone". Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
yellowtopaz 0 Posted January 19, 2009 Best of Luck to You! How are you doing with the pre-op requirements? Does your surgeon require an all liquid or mostly liquid diet? Hi, I've completed all the pre-op testing requirements. My doctor requires 4 days of liquids. 2 days full liquids and 2 days Clear Liquids. I start that on Thursday. I'm so pleased to have this surgery that the liquid diet is a small thing when compared to how much better my life will be. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Best of luck to you Ms. Kelley. Within only a day separating us, it'll be cool to compare notes. You hang in there. The 27th isn't far away and you can do it.
