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!

I want 2 wish all of us luck in our new jeroney to a whole new us:) everything is all worth it for a better healthy u:) I will keep my prayers for you all.

I made it through the surgery! Pain is bearable.

I am glad to see all is well...I will be following your progress...closely..

I made it through surgery, Thanks for all your prayers no pain, in and out of sleep but doing just fine dry mouth and thirsty is all

I thought the same too but I checked online n with other dr friends & I was told it will be ok. Was just told not to eat anything after midnight before surgery day.

Speedy recovery to everyone who had surgery today!! So glad everything went well!!

Thanks to Queenie 167 for her up to the minute post op journaling...great to see what to expect(we are all different and will react different)..but great to get a feel for what to expect....I know I am reading all I can about my upcoming surgery.
