Well I'm on my third day of clear fluids, have a bad headache. I just read some statement on nausea and problems coming up after years or at least several months of being banded. I really hope this is the exception. My surgery is happening Monday!! :confused:

Thanks for the suggestions, what about fat free chicken broth? Is that considered clear? Someone suggested raman packets. Does anyone know if I can still drink my psyllium or should I as I won't be having any solids.

I went for my consultation on Friday. My daughter went with me to hold my hand. She was banded a year ago June, this past Oct. she finished the Chicago Marathon. I'm very excited about my upcoming life change. I'm a little freaked out about the clear liquid diet my Dr. wants me on for 7 days before my banding. Any and all suggestions are most welcome!
