MissWhitzel 0 Posted October 29, 2009 Today is my day #2 of the pre-op diet. IT SUCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WARNING- TMI but; I got so sick this morning, with diarrhea and then after dinner I threw up. what's going on!? :thumbup: I'm thinking maybe my stomach doesnt settle too well with slimfast optima shakes? I've had them before- I was just fine with it.. now I'm not? I am struggling with the hunger! I bought kellog's Protein tea mix, it tastes good! but it hasnt really helped with the hunger.

luv2laugh 0 Posted October 29, 2009 I'm going in for a "revision" surgery :huh2:on Nov 5th.. so does that make me a November Bandster? I originally had mine in Sept 07. Overall, happy with it, but bummed that my band slipped. I had a couple bouts of vomitting (really bad reflux @ night too), and I think that's how the band slipped. Doc said there is really no way to know how it happened. :thumbup: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MiaBlue 0 Posted October 29, 2009 Hi MiaBlue, I am being banded on 27 Nov with Dr Chris, how is prep going? JB Hi JB, what prep? you have me worried now. I have asked about a pre-op diet diet but have not been advised as yet. As soon as I hear anything I will let you know. How you feeling, excited, nervous? I am already struggling with sleeping now, I think it is both of the aforementioned things. I just keep trying to imagine my body in 1 years time and it makes me smile. Speak soon.

120inside 0 Posted October 29, 2009 went in today for my final appt with the doctor and will be called sometime tomorrow with my offical surgery date. I can't wait for that phone to ring. I am going to carry it with me all day, even to the bathroom. I am not going to miss that call! I suspect my surgury will be sometime the second week of November. Hopefully not the 9th since that is my sons birthday! Brit Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rambler 0 Posted October 29, 2009 Hi November Bandsters: Rambler here, writing my first post. My surgery date is Wednesday, November 4th, less than a week. Can't wait. I'm a week in for my pre-op diet. Slim Fast Low Carb shakes and sugar-free Carnation Instant Breakfast, along with lots of Crystal Lite and sugar-free Jell-O. Fortunately, I'm not at all hungry,although I'm pretty tired of the sweet taste from the shakes. Unjury chicken Soup is okay, but I feel kind of bloated after 8 ozs. Best to all who are starting their journey this month and just think how absolutely fabulous we're all going to look by this time next year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
leelu7174 0 Posted October 30, 2009 Hi Everyone - My name is Rae. I guess I am joining the group for November bandsters too. I am to be banded on November 9th. I have been in the process now since June 24th which was my first day that I met with my surgeon. Pretty exciting news the day they said that I was approved. Good Luck to all of you!!:thumbdown: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
