Who said you can't have bananas? Your doctor? I have eaten them since the very beginning.

Did you decide to keep your band? I think I read once you were wanting it removed. I hope it all works out for you. I know since you are younger it might make life a little harder for you. I hope you decide to keep it. I think you will be happy you did later on. But what I read sound like you have had touch times. Hope they get better for you!!

Ever. The dr said the sugar from the fruit will cause you to eat more and weight loss will not be as significant.

Bananas and melons have the highest sugar content. My doctor said to eat them sparingly. As far as other fruits, I can eat them, but I have to take the skins off (apples, plums, etc) and be wary of stringy fruits like pineapple and oranges.

      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.
