Hey Ladies and Gents!

Having my Surgery done April 4th. Starting my Pre op diet tomorrow. They said Protein shake for Breakfast, small low fat/sugar lunch, Protein Shake for dinner until surgery. Any suggestions for the low fat/sugar lunch suggestions?

Im heading down to LA to get it done. They will arrange for me to be driven to and from there as I live in San Jose, Ca. My hubby is going to come with me for support. Hopefully they will give me enought pain meds for the ride home. Heh Woot! I'll be a Hollywood starlet by next summer haha!

So who else is getting banded in April? I could use a band-buddy for my journey!

Arpil 26th here...

Exactly 11 months before turning 40..I have dreaded getting older lol...but now I cant wait to turn 40...im looking forward to 40 as if I was turning 21 again!

liquid diet will start on the 19th...we just scheduled everything yesterday so they are sending me the info in the mail as far as what to have during that week before...After the band the liquid week wont be so bad i dont think cuz i wont feel so hot anyway..but the week before the surgery scares me lol

Just hang tight and be positive. I have my PreOp Appt tomorrow n my schedule date I'd April 24 2012. I just turned 40

I am going to get banded on April 24th 2012. Let's stay intouch n see how it goes.

Are you on some type of liquid diet?

I'm down friend me. I would love to see everyones progress. Mine is this coming up wed. So close!

Ok, let's stay intouch. I am extremely new to this forum n do not know how to make friends on this website. Any help?

Hi There' date=' I'm do to have surgery April 2, scared, nervous, different emotions right now. More scared oof the pain afterwards[/quote']

I am also going for my PreOp appt tomorrow (04/02/2012) I am very excited and looking forward to get banded on April 24th 2012.

Just got the info with my 1 week pre-op liquid diet on it. Surprised that there is no Protein shakes or drinks of any sort on there. I see the nutritionist on the 5th so going to ask her about it..the pre-op liquid diet is the same is the 1st week post-op' date=' so two weeks with no protein...doesnt sound right to me.[/quote']

I will find out tomorrow as to what type of liquid diet I should be on.

I just started my liquid diet. I had some Optifast Shakes left over, so I'm using them, however I hate the taste. Has anyone used the Unjury shakes? I hear they taste better.

I am scheduled for April 3rd. I can't wait.

Congratulations everyone....my date is April 12...so excited!
