I am so nervous excited and everything in between! My surgery is @ 6:00 a.m. tomorrow! Am I the only one who is hoping they arent the small percentage the band doesn't work for? All these things keep going through my mind makin me krazy!!

Anyhoo, good luck to all of you!

i am sitting here slurping on clear chicken broth... and i cant belive that this time tomorrow i will have started a new life!!! WOW... my husband will be with me.. my kids will be with my mom...and after that.. only my brother and future sister in law know about this. That has me a little worried too. I dont like to lie at all... but when i talked to everyone about this a year ago... i got horrible responses. I tend to have over weight (but beautiful) friends. Honestly i think because i wont be their eating or dieting partner in crime anymore they were worried. I have researched this for two years. Its my time to put hopefully an end to a lifetime struggle. sorry for the rant... Im just a bundle of emotions and nerves right now... WE WILL ALL DO GREAT!!!!

okay 2 1/2 hours more where I can still "eat" so I am going to enjoy a nice tall glass of Slim Plus chocolate milk and then pack my bag. I am hoping that I do well enough to be able to come home. I'm very anxious as to what it is to spend a night in a hospital !!!

GOOD LUCK TO ALL MY AUG 10TH BANDits !! i KNOW WE WILL ALL BE SOOOO HAPPY A MONTH FROM NOW !!! :cool:

      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.
