Welcome to Lap Band Talk and Good luck!!

I began this diet on April 7

I Can have 1-2 meals of 4-6 oz chicken breast with 1 cup green veggies 1-2 meals of a Protein shake Yes eating lots of protein. Thanks for the replies!

And the days are just dragging along. One week to go before my Band. I am ready to move over to the Post op questions and answers! Sorry folks there is no real topic here. I am just venting because I am hungry! I never was good at not eating!! No wonder I need WLS!

Anyone-Hard to believe there is no one with implants after banding!!

Don't sweat the small stuff. Tomorrow is another day!!! Good luck!!!!

Hello and welcome! It is a bit over whelming trying to get all the information and procedures completed, but I am sure it will be worht it!!!

Hello Lorie. Welcome to Lap Band Talk!

Hi. Glad you joined lap band talk. I too use True Results in Houston and Rachel is my Patient co-ordinator. My surgery date is one week from today on April 20th. Stay in touch with me and I will let you know how my pain level is. Good luck I know you will do great and I will too. FYI-I am also a self pay so we have some things in common!

So I am 5 days into my pre-op diet and I am starting to realize that I can never stuff myself again. I mean this diet is difficult but after this then i am banded and will be eating small amounts. I sometimes feel like I am mourning my old fattening lifestyle. Anyone feel this way?

Welcome to the lap band talk. I am glad you have joined.
