@tamara3569 - my pre-op diet was a protein shake for breakfast a small meal for lunch and a protein shake for dinner. i had to atleast get 60 to 80 grams of protein in a day. Then 48 hours before surgery only liquids... I have lost 15lbs since the 15th of this month just on the pre-op diet......Surgery is tomorrow morning.....

@AAD, Thanks, i shall always look towards the East there is much light there..... 3-5-7

@keesh32, you look great keep up the work.....i will be band Tuesday. I can't wait for a new beginning

@Roxann68 thanks and i will keep you posted....

thanks, How have you been since you was band.

hi, im 40 and will be band on july 30th....

i have been in this pre-op diet since the 15th and have done great, but to day i cheated with a cup of chicken noodle soup and 5 bake chips....surgery is tue....i start the liquid diet tomorrow....I'm so disappointed with myself

i look at it this way. i can be a example/inspiration to someone that is in the same shoes I'm in but don't have the courage to go forward like i have....i explain to everyone that i have been given a chance to correct some unhealth choices health wise that i have made in the pass...i was bless to be able to gain a tool (lapband) to help me correct the problem..regardless if i fail at this chance i can say i took the initiative to try and correct it...people is going to talk regardless if i do good or fail or if i tell them or not. but at the end of the day i can say I'm proud of my choice. i got a new lease on life and I'm going to use it to the best of my ability.

i will have surgery on the 30th of July and my return date back to work is aug. 27th

congrads, i will be band on the 30th

Hi i will be band on the 30th..Everyone knows about my journey. The reason why i told everyone that's close to me because i wanted to know how each and every one of them felt about the process...If they said something neg. those are the ones i want to stay far away from..I only need positive people by my side along this journey.....

good luck

i will be band on the 30th of July...nervous but excited all in one... going on day 6 of the pre-Op diet. I have a craving for some chips not a whole bag just about two or three of when i told my daughter that she got up and gave them to the kids playing in front of the house. lol i so love this child of mine she keeps me focus...I CAN DO THIS.....
