Just got the call !!! 6 AM tomorrow morning .... good luck to everyone !!!

Any special Bathign instructions. I had soem restrictions when I had my gallblader taken out. I was only allowed a 5 min. shower he didn't want areas to get wet and have tape fall off.

Ginny, You make me LAUGH!!! Milk makes me sick also ... There has do be something else that you cna have that is a Dairy product to give you your calcium... Why not Cottage cheese? Can you CHOKE that down.

Your right slim no matter how hard is we have to try. I've been pulling out my hair but I have officalially reache Ketosis today and that is what the Dr. is looking for. Stay strong Kutach and all the other's Pre op dieting.

Checking in on you hoep your having a better day. Rachel your being banded on the same date as me are you excited.:smile2:

Good luck to everyone this week.. today is my last day of "EVER SO VOLUPCIOUS LIFE". Please log on and post as soon as you can I would love to know how everyone is doing. xoxox:smile2:

Being banded tomorrow :thumbup::smile2::crying: So excited nervous tired of preop diet !!! Who's being banded this weeK?

To all my Gassy friends: Next trip to the store or send a relative Milicon Drops I have heard are the best they are used for infants with bad gas and have helped create mircles with my two children. A friend of mine had lapbad a few months agao and she tried everything and was in pain and I grabbed these drops for her and she was passing it in no time. Being that it's liquid it's fast acting!!:thumbup:

Thanks:smile2: I'm back on track as they say on the boards here don't give up tomorrow is a new day. Are you getting excited about your surgery?

Glad to hear things went so well!!! I'm on day 4 of my preop diet... trying to stay strong having a tough day I cheated a little yesterday so I'm beating myself up totally. The good thing with this diet I've lost about 5 pounds in 3 days. Good Luck to you and to everyone that is not banded.:thumbup:

I'm wiht you guys. I had to do a preop diet fro 5 days today is Day 4 mine was 3oz of Meat 2 x a day and then 3oz of meat or plain eggs in the AM in addition 3 oz of chicken broth. It's supposed to put your body in Ketosis. I Kepp checking my Urine and I see no Ketones on the strip so I'm SCARED TO DEATH :thumbup: that my surgeon will say no. I did cheat yesterday and had 3 bites of B-day cake and 4 bites of stuffing I made for Thanksgiving. I'm so upset with myself but today is a new day.

Amy sounds like you are having a really tough time.. Have you talked to your Dr. about the pain and the discoloration?

My heart goes out to you I'm not yet band but the dr. did give me a heads up that my hernia needed to be repaired. Is there anyway you can just kick back and do NOTHING this weekend... Maybe even miss school on Monday. Are you a teacher or a student? ( Big Hugs)

Welcome Horserider, My band date is the 18th also day 3 of my pre op diet:drool: Missing food. Welcome to the board. PS..How are all the Pre-dieters doing... Are you staying strong??

I would consult your Dr. I haven't been banded yet but my dr. gave me strict instuctions to crush the pills or get liquid Tylenol. You don't want the capsul getting stuck.:cool:

Yeahhhh Ebony, best of luck to !!! We are on our way... How are you feeling?

I get to eat just meat... I can barely stand the smell of that chicken broth .:tongue2: I added Mrs Dash to it today and put my turkey in it...lol. I'm moving my desk today into the ladies room because I'm there ALLLLL DAYYY:rolleyes2: I am looking forward to the weight loss and only 3 more days till Surgery ...YAHHHOOO

Pre Op diet Day 2 ...I'M HUNGRY and I miss my veggies!!! I never thougth I would say I hate white meat.... I know i'm lucky to eat meat but at this point and time I would trade my turkey for a protein shake:sad:

the best aprt of this whole thing is I'm a Trainer at my job and I have had to re-arrange my training for the surgery and everyone is freaking out because all they know is that I will be out of the office and it's killing them that I'm not saying why I will be out. The few people that have asked i told them I was have my Breasts enlarged..:thumbup: (I'm a 36DD)LOL they look at me and go ok........ It will give them something to talk about for days!!!:thumbup:

Good for you ... You never know that Ex may want you in antoher two mon'ts when a whole new you starts to surface. I've tried talking two or three people and havehad such bad feedback I have decided to stick with I'm having a hernia fixed!!:thumbup: which isn't a lie because he has to fix that while he is in there..lol. 5 more days and counting.

I was pulling out my hair !!!! I just gave up and called the insurance myself!!! The office still hasn;t called me to say they said yes!!! WHATEVER I'm just gald to get the big thumbs up:thumbup:

Kidder if you out there check in .. Looking to see how your doing and if you have ben ael to get a fill. I hope all is well.

Just go final thumbs up from insurance:thumbup: My heart goes out to you guys on the liquid diet. I get to have 3oz of meat 3 x a day and broth for 5 days.
