Thank you Madame! By the way, congratulations! It appears that you have reached your goal weight. I pray that I can be just as successful.

Hi Castle, How are you feeling today? Were you able to drink a litle more and keep it down?

Hi Barbill, Did you take time from work? If so how much? I will get banded on Thursday and will return to work on Monday. I hope that is not too soon. I teach school and I would only have to endure one week before school is out for the summer. Are you drinking juices and broth only?

Is anyone getting banded the week of 5/25/09? I am getting my band on 5/28/09. Would like to have a partner or two to help me get through the first phases of banding.

Thanks to eveyone who replied. I appreciate any and all advice. I am getting a little anxious as the days go by. I have heard horror stories about throwing up days after the band. I was told I could damage the band and not heal properly if I drink too much. The responder from Katy, please stay in touch. I would like to know how you are progressing. I would love it if we compare notes. The same invitation goes out to anyone who is willing to share your advice. ec4tutor@aol.com Thanks! 2911plans

Hello, My surgery is on 5/28/09. I have been reading through my booklets and preparing for the weeks after surgery. I am confused about how much to drink in the first few weeks after. I do not want to throw up because I am having too much broth or Water. I am 5'4" 201 pounds. Can someone give me any advice?:thumbup:

Hello, I am soooo new to forums. I read them a lot, but never respond to any. I hope this goes through. I am having my surgery next Thursday, May 28, 2009. My current weight is 199.6. How much weight can I possibly lose in the first 21 days? I leave for vacation 3 weeks after my surgery.
