I got banded on November 9th.. I'm feeling pretty hungry these days! My surgeon said clear liquids for two fays.. mushy foods such as pudding soft cereals and cottage cheese then moving on to egss and mashed potatoes and soft sandwiches.. everyone's surgeon is different I've seen people say that they're surgeon is saying liquids for two weeks post op.. mine says I should be on solid food two weeks after and I should change foods as my stomach can tolerate them

Three days post op and I'm starving!!! I've had cream of wheat, pudding, broccoli soup and pea soup.. thinking about trying more solid of a food.. I'm tired of the constant hunger pains!!!

I'm getting banded tomorrow with my mom.. looks like we'll only be two days apart!

I went to school to be a Sleep tech and the whole process still freaked me out a little.. it took me a little while to get to sleep but once I did I slept for the rest of the night and in the morning my sleep tech said she didn't see any problems!

I'm having surgery tomorrow at 8:30 and my mom is at 8!

What have your doctors recommended as a pre operative diet the week before surgery?

I work at a tanning salon and I have to do a lot of bending to clean the beds so I'm taking a full week off then just trying to take it easy.. my mom works at a daycare with toddlers and the doctor told her to take two weeks since she's lifting

My doctor told me one cup of coffee in the morning wouldn't be an issue just to not add a whole bunch of sugar and cream which isn't really an issue cause I use Splenda then he just suggested not drinking a whole lot of tea and beverages with caffeine

I start my shakes on November 2nd I can't wait to get this done! I'm nervous of course id feel kinda strange if I wasn't nervous but I'm so excited to get this done and start this new phase of my life!

My mom and I went to our final doctors appointment Friday! Now all that's left before my surgery is my EGD this Friday.. I can't believe 6 months has gone by this quick and surgery is right around the corner!
