Hi Guys!! I will also be banded on Dec. 19th. I've been on the pre op diet for 1 week and realized today I havent been doing it right!! Arrrggghhh. So, today I will make sure I follow it to the "T" I hope I havent messed anything up. Is there a certain amount a weight you need to lose before surgery?? Does anyone know??
