Im only on day 2 of a 3 week pre op liquid diet. But I've only consumed between 400-450 calories a day. Is that good or bad? I have a ton of Water thru the day and a Protein shake for Breakfast, I get hunger headaches midday an i have Jello then an hour later im having lunch which is Soup broth or a Protein Shake... By dinner time im starving an i have creamed soup with jello and/or a popsicle. But im only having about 450 calories. Should i have more? I just want this to be over. ANewMe428

I've struggled my entire 30 years of life with my weight. Diet after diet. I'd lose a pound here and there,but never permanently... I started this weight loss journey last February. Going to seminars, watching YouTube videos, doing research. I knew the Lapband was for me!!! I had to recently lose 40pounds to qualify within a 6month period, per my insurance request. I lost the weight!!! Today, my dr office called saying I'VE BEEN APPROVED FOR MY SURGERY!!! May 6th 2013 is the day for me!! Im beyond excited. I have to be on a 3week liquid pre op diet.,That im not happy about, lol. But the NEW ME WILL BE! ANewMe428

Wow Creekwood... I definitely understand . I've asked myself those same questions over and over. No health concerns, just Iron anemia. HBP & CHF runs in my family as well as diabetes. My Grand father had a,triple bipass surgery an still died of heart conditions. My father has CHF an HBP, my aunt recently died of heart complications due to her being excessively over weight. My mother is thin, has been alllllll her life. So i don't know why I had to get fat. So I know she doesn't understand my pain. I'll be 31 on the 28th & i knew if I didn't do something about my weight now, I'd die fat.... Which is my biggest fear.... But like u said, on next year for my birthday I CAN'T WAIT TO SEE MY SUCCESS! :-) ANewMe428
