Welcome May 2009 Bandsters

Well, I am new to the site and will be banded on May 6th. I also noticed that there are several that will be getting banded in the month of May to.. So, I thought it would be fun to have a thread for us May Bansters.

I think it would be fun to see how we all progress as we each reach our surgery date and our experiances after.

So I will start first..

I am counting down to my days, I have 4 days left. I am on the pre-diet and have lost 12 pounds. I am looking forward to having my band.

So when is your date? tell us all.

*Please post even if you are not a may 2009 bandster we would still love to hear from you and we post our experiances.

See you in Band land soon.

what kind of pre op diet are you on? What did you eat or drink?

Right now just low fat, low calorie, I do my preop on Tuesday and at that time I will be given my next instructions. I am looking at a surgery date of either the 14th or 21st.

I found the may 2009 bandters group just after I posted this thread.. So sorry for duplication.

As for what I am doing on my pre-op diet. My doctor had me to a high protien low carb diet with only 900 to 1000 calories per day.

I do a juice Plus Complete soy protien shake in the morning and for lunch and then I have a small meat Protein and veggies for dinner. I have also been walking and doing Water aerobics every day.

I will see you all on the mayo banditos group and threads.

happy banding

Mine is May 7th and I am so excited. I have been on the high Protein diet preop and I have lost 7.5 pounds in 4 days. I hope it is this easy after.

Good luck to everyone....
