Just a suggestion there is a thread about things u will need after surgery. This was very helpful to me. The best tasting shake is Premier.

Best of luck with your surgery!
What did I do before band?
I took part in a three-week programm of rehabilitation from compulsve eating, tried to choose healthy food, started chewing longer and avoided drinking during meals.
I lost 20 lbs in a month and a half.
I know that a lot of people often eat as much as they can before surgery, but I knew that I had to get used to eating less and better before surgery, because I wouldn't be able to cope with a sudden and forced change in my eating habits.
I also started having a one-hour walk every day.
Here in Italy surgeons don't ask to follow any sort of pre-op diet, but my surgeon said that weight loss would made both surgery and recovery easier

Looking great!

I've been approved by my insurance (PEIA) to have lap band surgery. My surgery has been scheduled for January 10th. What do I do now/first? Scared.....excited...!!!
