I keep seeing everyone talking about the two week pre surgery diet. I thought I would be on one as well, but my surgeon does not make lap bands do that? I was kind of surprised. Now I'm not going crazy or anything and actually plan on starting high protein/liquid three days prior to surgery. What is their reasoning behind the two weeks? Also, you can "join" the January 2012 group when you click on the Groups tag and actually join there.

Hi everyone! I'm having surgery on January 10th and created a group in the groups section "January 2012 bandsters". Would love to get some discussions, support going.

Hello all! Ive started a Group ; January 2012 bandsters in the group section. Would love people to join that are having surgery in Jan.!

Hi! Would love to buddy up with a mentor- Doesn't have to be from St. Louis. My surgery is Jan 10th! Thanks!

Congrats. Looking forward to being this successful. Whats your biggest piece of advice?

Good luck. I cant say that i have alot of advice since my surgery is on the 10th, but I'm getting excited. What are you most nervous about?

Good luck!
