Last night not so good. Could not get comfortable. Trouble taking deep breaths cuz of gas pain now I'm nausea.

I just got banded today. It was over before you know it and you will do fine. My dr told me my liver was perfect so the preop diet did what is was suppose to do.

I made it through the surgery! Pain is bearable.

I have lost 16.5 pounds since I started my preop. I'm on my way to the hospital in an hour for my surgery. I will keep you posted. I'm ready to start my new life.

I'm going to join myfitnesspal just not right now. I'm a little overwhelmed and need to take one step at a time. I think until I'm eating solid foods....can't go there yet.

I would try different brands and flavors. You can get unflavored and add your favorite cooking spice. Then is even SF syrups you can get. I add my protein to puddings too. Most health store have single serving packets you can try. Good luck

I'm in Pre op and surgery is 4/2. My first few days were ok but now I seem dehydrated. I'm drinking a gallon of water along with my 2 shakes. I also noticed this morning, I'm losing my hair. Is this normal or should I call the dr?

Good luck on your journey. My surgery date is 4/2 but I started my prep last may. I didn't loose much weight but since my Pre op I have 14 pounds. I'm looking forward to my new life.

Oh my goodness! I love this post. My surgery is 4/2. I can so relate but the 5k is my goal. We have one on thanksgiving day I plan to walk it. But in February I want to run the 5k. My son loves to run and he wants me to run with him. Also my other son wants me to ride the batman ride at six flags with him. I love life and I want to be able to enjoy it with my children and their children (when they have them in 10 years or so). I'm going to post my list on the frig and my bathroom mirror.

Ok so they idea is to starve us before the schedule or thin out the ones who really don't want to do? I'm on day 2 and I'm starving and have no energy.

I just joined. I'm in fort worth and mine is scheduled for 4/2 with dr. Smith. Love to join ur group.
