congratulations!! I was banded 12/30/10, i also had the 2 week pre op diet, remember that all doctors are different. I could have anything liquid. Water, loved vitiman water 0 calories, won ton soup without the won tons, onions, etc, diet soft drinks, sugar free popscicles, sugar free jello, anything that had calories was considered the "meal" and the items with NO calories in between, drink, drink, drink, and keep yourself busy! Keep us updated.

Hi... I am set for FEB 14th. I got a PreSurgery 2 week diet. I Have to take 2 protein shakes and have a small lunch like tuna or something and a small snack like cottage cheese and then for dinner light stuff like 4oz chicken breast with some veggies and one starch. IT sounds pretty easy and they said people loose 20 or so pounds during the 2 wks. I am going to follow it to the T. I start on the 1st.....Best of luck to you.
