Hey Tiare, my doc said the same about 6 small meals but i thought because in 2 weeks i will have to have 3 small meals i would start off now! I had some issues with Protein so made some home made soups! I keep forgetting the bottle of Water, we have had 45 degree temps since i was out of hospital and really should be looking after myself! I dont have a check up til the 27th of this month seems like a long time hey! Teeny83 - Do you think what you are eating is good / bad? From reading the other postings i mentioned you are eating not too much but everyone is different as to what they can tolerate. That Velish soup is devine How have you gone in your first year?

Hey hope it all went well! I was banded on the 28th and came home today on the 30th little tender but full of excitement! Best of luck to you all and our journey together xx

Congrats to all who were banded on the 28th :thumbup: got home this morning, little sore but tolerable :scared:

Hey Jean! You're not alone! I'm also getting banded on the 28th of Jan in Adelaide, Australia! Just done one week of pre op diet one more week to go cant say its the most exciting thing i have done but it hasnt been as bad as i exepcted! Im having mixed emotions too but the weight loss from the Optifast is keeping me motivated! Em.

Hey Guys, I'm booked in for surgery on the 28th and as you can imagine I can't stop thinking about it! So here is my first question to anyone who can help! A friend of mine was banded a couple of years ago and said she was told not to drive for three weeks. Has anyone been told similar? My Doctor which was the same as hers has not told me about any restrictions to driving and now im starting to think! Was anyone told not to drive or did anyone have pain/discomfort that they could not drive for a while? Any help is great! Em. P.s getting very excited!

Hey Guys, Cheers for your help! Im going to wait and see how i feel and take it from there! Im in hospital for 30 hours after my op if all goes well and have great parents who want to baby me! I'm set for a few days! Em x

Lol around my stomach still! Just a very new person to this whole thing! Only 22 so its a big step for me and I feel like i'm entering almost a new life with the opportunities i am giving myself hence the losing virginity! Guess thats my age shining through :tongue2:

Hey, Sorry I'm from Australia! We use kilograms rather than pounds! I think 124kg is roughly 273 pounds? Ill double check though! Thanks for giving me a read! Em.
