    Ihi I've been following this post. I'm having my band to bypass surgery on the 22 and thus is the first I've heard of losing slower. . I'm puzzled that you feel no restriction. Has anyone else experienced this?
    That has me very nervous.

    Started my pre-op diet today. My surgery is July 30 and I am a bit (well a lot) nervous. After 2 failed lap band attempts I am concerned about the scar tissue and whether or not the doc will be able to complete the revision to bypass. I am also questioning whether or not I am doing the right thing. I already failed twice, I just don't want to fail again.

    I too struggle with adhd. I'm 5 weeks post-op with bypass. Don't stress so much about missing pills. I got a 4 compartment a day pill case and I try for 4 meals a day. This way I can spread them out during the day and I forget one at least every 2 or 3 days. We're not perfect but getting apps on my phone is a life saver.

    Hi everyone. .Just joined.
    I was banded in August 2010. I'm on my preop diet scheduled for revision from band to bypass on the 22nd. It's taken years and 8 canceled surgery dates and a change of surgeons and insurance hurdles, infections, and a total of four years from wheni decidedto revise to get to this point and I'm terrified that the scar tissue will prevent the revision. .I don't think my nerves could handle another postponement.
    Right now I'm really struggling with the preop liquid diet. I'm kept up at night by hunger pangs and I'm too weak to do anything.
    I'm also very nervous about all the things to keep track of. The Protein, the Vitamins, the liquid, I'm si s scared I'll mess it up and harm my recovery. I have adhd so preplanning and tracking are a huge challenge. I'm open to any ideas to help simplify the process and calm my nerves.
    My main goal with this surgery is to aleviate my pcos and start ovulating again. I'm 30 years old.
