Not sure if the different scales are way off but was 229 at Dr. Office at pre-op day 1. Down to 210 on home scale today pre-op day 14. So I am pretty sure I have lost any where from 10-19 lbs which is exciting. My biggest fear about tomorrow is post-op pain in recovery. Recovery pain after a Knee surgery 10 years ago was the worst pain I have ever felt in my life....hopefully I won't wake up screaming this time. So glad for this forum you all are a great support network and I hope to pay it forward. Tomorrow is the first day of the rest of my life.

So I made it to day 9 of pre op diet. I still am pretty hungry most of the time and feel bad mostly in the afternoons after I have been moving arround alot. Is this how I will feel with the lap band??? Because although it has gotten a little better since day 3 it still is awful. I am a fulltime grad student and there is no way I would be able to even think straight when I am back in school if this is how life will be forever. Any feedback and comments is appreciated.

I am on day 3 pre op diet and I feel awful. Nauseous, lightheaded, clammy when I drink a shake it stops for maybe an hour and them comes back. Any guidance is appreciated.

Hope all is well with you. Prayers to you.
