  1. My doctor has perscribed an injection for me to have the day before my surgery. I pick it up at the drug store and find a person I am comfortable with to give it to me or I can go back to my doctor. He told me what it was for but I can't remember and I can't read his handwriting to look it up on the internet. Anyone else have to have an injection the day before surgery.
  2. I am only supposed to have a liguid diet ( Carnation Instant Breakfast, Broth, Sugar Free Jello, and lots and lots of Water)
  3. Thank you.......Your advice is very much needed and appreciated. I feel better. :-)
  4. I am so scared. If I can't seem to follow the 2 week pre-surgery diet how am I going to follow the rules after surgery. Has anyone felt like this or have this problem?
  5. I need help guys. I have my surgery on the 27th. I was put on a 2 week liquid diet last week. I can't stay with it. I am so hungry. Yesterday I ate a real dinner the only thing I had eatin since last Wednesday. Today I am trying to get back on full liguids. How did you manage to get by without cheating.
  6. My doctor put me on a 2 week liquid diet today is my 3rd day. I am hungry but not as bad as I thought it would be. I just hope to stay strong and not break. I keep thinking about my surgery date the 27th and that seems to help. I have waited since last October to have this done.
  7. Hi Everyone, Hey I am new to this stuff and have been reading alot of previous posts to try to learn as much as I can about this. I have seen PB's and the word Slime can someone fill me in on what they mean?
  8. I am a newbie to all of this can someone explain what PB's and Slimes are
  9. I am schedule for June 27th. I would love to be included in your emails. BJohnson@alphanr.com Looking forward in getting to know you all better.
  10. Thank you for the reply I am in need of great support and have many questions. So far so good on my fast I'm not really hungry yet I have been drinking lots of water. SO your saying I probably won't lose much until my first fill. I assumed that they would fill some after surgery.
  11. Hi Everyone, Today is my first day of my 2 week fast before my Lap Band surgery scheduled for June 27th. I am nervous and excited at the same time. Those that have already went thru the surgery do you have any regrets?
