    Pre-Op Diet question

    Thanks for the info everyone! RestlessMonkey....that was hilarious about the Paris Hilton thing.....so true! LOL. :bored: I'm starting to realize that this might not be as quick of a process as I am thinking. I was hoping to get banded before August. Oh well, hopefully I can work things out to have it done when it is time.
  4. Hey everyone! I've been reading through some posts and it looks like everyone is doing well! I have a few questions about the pre-op diet. I know that every surgeon is different but basicaly what are they trying to achieve out of the pre-op diet? I've heard some say to shrink the liver and some say to protect the stomach and others simply to just lose weight. How long do you have to be on the pre-op diet before you have surgery? If I start dieting now will it help? I haven't been to my seminar yet, it is scheduled for July 7th. After surgery, how long will you be in pain? How long is the hospital stay? How long do you have to be out of work? Wow, I'm asking alot of questions! :frown: Thank you for listening......or reading! :wub:

    Introducing myself

    Thank you both for the info! I try to eat balaced meals already (sometimes it is unavoidable to eat bad). I'm so glad to hear that I can still eat "normal" but just a new normal. I am so excited to get on this band wagon.....no pun intended....and get to losing weight!
  6. Hi everyone! I have decided to to lap band after 6 to 8 years of contemplating it. I go for a seminar on the 7th with my surgeon, to get to know him and to get more information on the surgery. I am really interested in knowing what kind of diet I will be on once I am able to eat solid foods after surgery. Now I'm off to browse the forum for more info! ~Lori :blushing:
