    Banded & Studying Abroad?

    I was banded about 5 weeks ago, i got banded in my home town but i go to uni at the other end of the country, because i moved away about 2 weeks after surgery iv had to go home for fills because there arent any doctors that do WLS in the city where i go to uni, its totally manageable, im going overseas at the end of the year so about 12 months postop and the Dr said that at that point you should be fine and not needing any fills and if there is an emergency and you need an emergency unfil any doctor can do it as theres lots of instructional videos available, If your worried before you go they can take some fluid out so its not tight it might push you from the green zone to the yellow zone though which is fine for life just not for weight loss. Good luck for surgery

    When Is Your Lap Band Surgery Date?!

    My surgery is on the 21st, kind of nervous, but also excited. Good luck everyone
  5. Im on a pre op diet of two opti fast meals a day and one of meat and low carb veges, im in my second week of it, at first i found the shakes and bars to be so gross and the made me feel really sick to, If your shakes are like protein milk shakes make them really really cold and theyr much easier to drink also if your allowed have some diet fizzy drink straight after you finish them to get the taste out of your mouth as soon as you can. Also try all the different flavours you might find some more bearable than others. Just stay strong and stick to what your doctor said you can have, drinking the shakes does get easier after a while
