BandedStacy

OK, I have 3 more days till my surgery. Lucky for me I am the first one of the day. Bad part of that is I am also prob the farthest away from the hospital.... So I have to be there at 6am means we have to leave our house at about 4:30am... but guess it just means that I will sleep good after the surgery. Hope you are all having a great weekend.

More than just a pretty face I just invited you to friend me on fb. I'm sweetie karma

I'm marchbander@yahoo.com would love to be added to anyone who's doing this as well

Wow - I think I can count myself lucky. My doctor's pre-op diet is note entirely liquid. It does require that you have plenty of Protein. So two Protein Shakes a day and then a small lunch and dinner. Does anyone else have a non-liquid pre-op diet?

I get to have a lean protien & veggies or a weight watchers meal for supper. With protein shakes for Breakfast and lunch along with a piece of fruit with the shakes. Not been bad at all here.

I went to my pre-op appointment yesterday and I am even more excited to get this going. I rememeber walking out the door of the Doctors office thinking to myself this is really going to happen. A week from today I will be banded. To all of you that are getting it done today the best of luck to you on your journey....

Just a side note if any of you haven't yet check out on youtube there is lots of vlogs of different people's WLS journey. I have found lots of great information on there.

March 13th for me....on day 4 of the pre op diet. SO far doing well. I have just found the Blender Bottle with blender ball. I LOVE it....now I just wish I could find a protien powder that I like. I go for my blood work and other tests on Monday so the goal is to stop at the local Vitamin Shoppe, where I've been told they have a protien shake by the name of nectar. Can't wait to try it out. Good luck to all that are getting banded this next week. Exciting & scary all at the same time.

I am starting on day 6 of my pre-op diet. I am allowed 5 Protein Shakes and have lost 12 pounds in 5 days. But all I'm allowed to have is the Protein shake.....THAT'S IT! I broke last night and had a salad and a piece of turkey bacon, and I'm feeling so guilty. I've done so well with not eating anything at all for 4 straight days. My surgery is on the 12th and I'm scared that the salad will prevent me from having surgery. I don't really think it will, but the guilt is making me paranoid. HELP!

I also have done so well the past 4 days sticking to the diet. My diet at least I get to have a sensible dinner. But today I had an oops. I ate a piece of corn bread. May sound pretty small but still I wasn't suppose to eat it. I am also having the guilts from doing this. All I can say is we just have to move on and be better from now on. Good luck to you.

I start my pre-op liquid diet tomorrow...I get a shake for Breakfast and lunch, I can have two pieces of fruit, and a ww meal for dinner. Oh and I can have all the broth, sf jell-o and sf popsicles I want. It's going to be rough but I am more then ready to get this started.

I just got my date set for March 13th. I am very excited has been a long time coming. Starting my pre op diet tomorrow...What is everyone using for the protien shakes used in the pre op diet?
