Getting banded March 9th.....a little nervous

I'm super excited and a little nervous all rolled into one. I start my pre-op diet Wednesday, March 2, and get banded on March 9th. I'm not sure why I'm so nervous, I guess it's just the unknown. I'm sure I'll be asking lots of questions and am hoping to find support here as well as giving support to others.B)

I was banded on 3/4! I'm very excited. It has gotten much easier everyday. I'm only a little over a week out, but I know right quick when I don't get my liquids. I am on blended foods and protien shakes. Started them yesterday...never new tuna and cottage cheese could taste so good. I was on protien shakes on day 3, so it wasn't too bad. The chicken broth was not good for me, yuck! But I survived and am very excited to see lots of fellow recent bandees to share with!! Good luck to you all!

Hi Starzz & Lady, glad to see you doing well. I'm thinking about starting my Protein shakes earlier than my doctor said. I'm not suppose to start them until Tuesday, but I'm really needing something more than broth and clear liquids. I feel like I am starving.

I'm really looking forward to tuna and cottage cheese in a week or so, Lady.

I'm looking forward to sharing this journey with you guys.
