1 week since the Lap band and I am feeling great. Down a total of 30lbs. I lost 20lbs during the pre op diet and another 10 this week. First few days a little sore. I had a scare on Monday night...thought I was having a stroke...turns out I was dehydrated. Thank God!!

Getting closer....how are you doing. I am so hungry on this pre op diet...5 more days...then liquid...lol...not much to look forward to.

One more week until lapband. Have lost about 10 lbs. on pre op diet. Hope evryone is doing good.

All I can say is don't give up!! I'm getting banded on March 31st. I am scared and excited at the same time. The pre op diet is brutal, especially if you like to eat. But I am doing it because I don't want to gain anymore weight. You have to understand that this is just a tool. You still have to watch your intake. So go check it out..what do you have to lose! I sound like a Lap band ad. LOL

What did you use for your protein drinks? I bought some of the muscle milk light, it tastes good but has 6 grams of fat. I think we are supposed to have only 2 or 3 grams of fat. Hope you are doing good. I am starting the countdown to a new me...YEAH!!

Thanks for your info. I talked to Dr Madan yesterday. He called me and reassured me that the Beverly Hills Center is fine, but that I am going to the modern Institute and that the 2 incidences that happened last year were related to other issues. I also liked Madan when I first met him and now, for him to call me directly, I Love him. I am having my band done on3/31, can't wait.

Are you going to Dr. Madan? Where are you having the procedure? I am scheduled with Madan on March 31 at the Beverly Hills Surgery Center.
