Hello everyone!

I'm scheduled for this Friday(April 19)... I'm nervous' date=' but excited. My doctor did not put me on a liquid diet, just no sugar and lots of Protein. Has anyone out there had this same type of pre op?

Also, I'm looking to lose 45-60lbs. I'm only 5"2 and weigh in at 210 give or take. My BMI is 39.5 and I'm self pay. Is there anyone out there that needs or had the band done with my similarities?...again, I'm nervous, but hope this is one of the best decisions I've ever made for my health....hope to hear from someone soon...Thanks!....Sistercin[/quote']

My surgery is the same day. I have a similar diet also. A modified Atkins for 30 days prior. Lost 18 so far. I am not complaining about my pre op diet at all. I had it easy compared to others. I am looking to loose 70 pounds.

Wow that is amazing results congrats to you!! I hope to have your kind of success! <img src='http://www.bariatricpal.com/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />

That is great! It makes us newbies having surgery reassured that this is the best decision for us. Congrats to you!!!!
