I was banded on Monday 6/15 and felt that I was well enough to go to work by Friday but didn't return till Monday. The shoulder and neck pain lasted till Thrusday. I have a 2 year old and was left alone with her on Wednesday and felt well enough to take care of her. Hope everything goes well for you.

I only had to do a 2 day liquid pre-op diet. I lost 9lbs. My pre-op visit weight was 255, day of surgery weight was 246. Two weeks of loquid pre-op sounds harsh. I wonder why the pre-op diet is so different for all of us.
