julia19642 0 Posted September 25, 2009 (edited) Welcome fellow Aussie !! I seriously HATED the pre-op diet....especially since my best friend was visiting from the US. She's a gourmet chef. Talk about "pre-band hell". You'll survive this AND the post-op stuff, it's just a bit difficult at times, coz our head can still tell us what it THINKS it wants. I was a bit lethargic on the pre-op liquid crap for a few days, but that passes and i'm soooooooo glad that my head hunger and bad eating habits no longer rule my life. Now my only worries are my newly arrived wrinkles from losing weight. :scared2: What a great worry to have though. Much better worry than not seeing my boys grow up coz my fat and co-morbidities were killing me. Hang in there girlfriend !!!! it's well worth the ride Edited September 25, 2009 by julia19642 computer sucks and doesn't have a key that works Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
*susan* 1,709 Posted September 25, 2009 Hi there, and welcome to LBT. The pre-op diet can be rough, especially the first three days. You just have to keep your eye on the prize, getting your band and a new and healthier you. You can do this, and you will get tons of support here to help you through the process.
