I am being banded on 1/17...

im also going on 1/17! 7:30 am!!!

I am also on 1/17. I'm excited and nervous at the same time. I went out to a Brazilian Steakhouse the other night for a last hoorah and wasted my money and time. I was not interested in eating anything. I've become so used to drinking protein shakes for the past couple of months that I had no interest in eating any of the meats that I used to enjoy. I am on my prediet now which only consists of protein shakes for breakfast and lunch and then s amall piece of meat and steamed veggies for dinner. No breads allowed. How is your preop diet going?

I will be banded on the 11th. I cant wait to get this started. I've been starving since I've been on the protein thing for a week. I've only slipped a few times but It's very hard not to eat all day just dinner.

I will also be banded on the 17th! I am so excited! I have my preop stuff on the 12th and I am getting so nervous! I too have slipped and I am so scared that it will ruin my chances...they have me on an all liquid diet but I just wanted some turkey lol!! Hopefully things will go great at my appointment! I am sure I am just over reacting! I always do that! :(

Not the 17th but the 18th. I can't wait a week from tomorrow!!

I'm not the 17th but I'm the 18th! Can not WAIT to get this over with!!!

I start my pre op diet tomorrow

So NOT excited about that ...lol

I am on day 5 of my 14 day pre-op diet (the first 3 days were the hardest so far). It consist of 1 protein shake for breakfast, 1 for lunch, and 1 serving of any soup I want that does not have cream in it. Needless to say I am STARVING! I decided to make my own soups so I could monitor the calories and carbs better. This allows me to make alterations to have a larger portion of soup, and still stay within the quidlines. I have also become something of a Protein Shake Connoisseur. I have tried 4 different brands and flavors so far and just picked up 5 more tonight, to try out through the week. I really wish I had taste tested them before the pre-op began. I think because I have an empty stomach most of the time,I am more sensetive to the tase and it hits pretty hard in my stomach
