ddsweighin228

I go for my EGD on Monday 4/7 then on 4/11 I get my lap band, I am getting nervous. I started my pre-op diet on 3/24 weighed in@ 228, I promised my self I would only weigh on Fridays so I weighed 3/28 and weighed 222, I am feeling nervous about weighing myself this Friday cause I don't feel like I have lost any weight, also I am worried that I will nit be able to be back at work on Monday following lap band, the nurse told me I will be able to.

How much weight do you need to loose during pre-op ?

I am scheduled for April 11

actually I think the first three days are the hardestbut after I got on the scale today I think it was well worth it I lost only five pounds I know I could have done better but Ifell off the wagon on Tuesday

So I got on the scale this morning , I started my pre-op diet on Monday and have only lost 6lbs,felt bad cause I thought for sure it would be more, but then I remembered I fell off the wagon on Tuesday so I guess it is not too bad...

Thank you all for all your responses, I have jumped right back in and I keep telling myself I know I can do this...

Thanks I feel better , I am drinking ice tea w/splenda and a lot of lemon

Thanks for the advice, I think it is because I have never used sugar subtitutes I am hoping that I get use to the sugar substitute s

I started my pre-op diet on Monday and I already fell of the wagon yesterday, first off my diet should consist, 2 of 3 meals will be replaced with a a protein shake then a healthy meal also a snack of sugar free pudding, popsicles or jello. I did good till dinner yesterday went to taco cabana ordered a cabana bowl with rice, lettuce, cheese and grilled chicken, I knew it was bad but I still did it... Also I am not a water drinker and I have not been drinking but a bottle a day, my surgery is scheduled for 4/11 :-(

I started my pre-op diet yesterday and I will admit today I am a little hungry but I can handle it, the thing I do not like is the after taste of the protein shake, any suggestions ???
