Hey Jenna , just a quick question, I'm getting banded tomorrow and was wondering will I be starving the first 2 weeks while on the liquid diet. This past ten days has been hard doing the pre-op liquid diet and I was hoping that I won't be starving after I'm banded. Thanks Ms. Serenity.:smile2:

Hey this is Ms. Serenity, I got approved about 17 days ago and my surgery to get banded is tomorrow. I'm so excited. I have been on the liquid protein diet for the last 10 days and it sucks. I'm hungry. I get to eat a salad once a day now but am still so hungry. Trying to drink a lot of water. Make sure you're protein drink is blended up really good so it will taste ok. I also mixed mine with some slimfast and that also helped. Hang tuff they say after I'm, banded I shouldn't be so hungry. Hope this is true. :smile2:

Hey Im getting banded tomorrow and don't plan on getting fills for awhile. I hope this band thing works but they told me I may not lose weight for awhile but I'm pretty patient so one step at a time. Hang in there Ms. Serenity

Hey, good luck on your journey. I am getting my lap band surgery tomorrow and am a little nervous and very hungry. I am also looking for lap band buddies. My daughter had the surgery last year and has lost 70 pounds and I'm hoping I have the same success. She has had a few problems with overfills and then having to get Fluid let out but one step at a time. I don't plan on getting any fills for quite a while. Im glad you are doing it for your health. Im almost 50 and my body is killing me. Back pains, knee pains, shortness of breath, I want to live longer so I'm excited. This last 10 days of a liquid diet was kind of hard but I did cheat twice. Opps. Well have fun in vegas and drink a beer or two for me. Keep in touch. Ms. Serenity. :biggrin::smile2:
