I just started today on my ten-day pre-op diet and it definitely went a lot better than I had feared! I have a list from which I can choose 5 starch, 2 dairy, 2 Protein portions, plus 2-3 pieces of fruit and unlimited vegetables (except potatoes, parsnips and sweetcorn.) Tea, coffee and diet drinks are also unlimited.
Good luck to everyone currently on a pre-op diet. Stay strong!
Hi everyone
This is my first posting on LapBandTalk; my surgery (gastric band) is January 20th. I live in the UK and am having my surgery here too. Really pleased to have found this site as I'm sure I'll have loads of questions and it'll be great being able to talk to people who have been/are going through the same thing.
Good luck to all of us!
Justine
