Good luck today, Dr. Barnett is doing my band on the 22nd. I'm right outside of Dover.

I'm currently on the preop diet, my surgery is Monday. My dr has me on 4 of the high protein slim fast shakes they are 180 cals and 20 g of protein per shake. They taste horrible but it could be worse. I Can have sf jello and sf ice pops and sf liquids along with clear broth. Everything totals 800 cals and 80 g of protein daily.

Thank u in trying

I'm the 22nd too!!!!

Started mine today and I'm right there with ya, it stinks!!! But we made this decision for a reason we just have to get through this week if hell and we are home free to a new life! Keep it up!

So my surgery is next week, the 22nd. Today is day 1 of my liquid high protein diet and I'm miserable and want to chew food!!! I keep reminding myself it will be worth it in the end and if I don't stick to it ill be going home without my band next week....just needed to vent

My surgery is next Monday the 22nd. My Dr. Only had me do 1 week preop diet, thank God because today was day 1 and it was torture!!!!! Good luck to you on your journey. As far as family goes, I am the fat one in a family of tiny, skinny model types and not one of them get it! I'm so over being big and feeling like crap, we have 5 kids and I can't keep up with them and its scary.
