@arlen111 Yes we can all do this. Glad you finally got approved, God is Good

@ daisychains7 Hang in there, you can do it

@Tamg Southern girl May you have a easy & painless surgery.

@Jenny311 Good luck to you 2

@biloxiblue keep us informed when you find out your date

Where do u get ur liquids I'm having a hard time finding sugar free and low fat

I recommend going to GNC or The Vitamin Shoppe. Vitamin Shoppe has slightly better prices.

I am scheduled for May 8th. I am new to this forum . . . just became a member yesterday and am still trying to find my way around here. One thing I have noticed as I've read various posts' date=' is it seems many folks were on a liquid diet far longer than I will be. I've not started yet and don't meet with the nutruitionist until Wed, which is less than a week before surgery. Does that seem unusual?[/quote']

We are getting surgery the same day. Started liquids on Saturday. I would double check with your nutritionist to make sure it wasn't a mistake. Every hospital is different so maybe only a few days is standard there.

Eye wonder - thanks. I am gonna have jello and veggie broth tonight to mix it up. Feels like day 10 will never get here.

Congrats to US ALL!!!Smoking is my down fall rite now too....Im doing it but its sooo hard!!!!Well I start my liquid diet on Wed May 2nd!!!! Excited to get this rolling....Heads up May Bandsters!!!Here we go!!!

I have 4 more day to go! Keep you all posted.

I am also new here I am schedule this Friday May 4th!

Anyone May 30th? I'm a little jealous of the people getting banded in early May! Good luck!

Hi all....this is my first time posting. I got my surgery date on Friday (it is May 14) and I have been excited and scared all weekend. I did not have to diet prior so now it is hitting me in the face......wow, this is real! I have bought all the items needed for my 2 week liquids. I think it is just a mental game for me to get into the groove, but it will definitely be hard!

Hey candtwalker welcome! I can't believe how many people are not on a liquid diet before the surgery. But I see you are on a 2 week liquid afterwards. I will only be on a liquid diet for the day of and the day after surgery. Then I get to move on to cream a wheat, pudding, yogurt and soup. And a course all of them are fat free and sugar free. But yaaa! Food! I really want meat right now but that is several weeks a way for me. I can make it, I know I can!

Hey May bandsters, if I start a "May blooming bandsters" group would you join?

What is it??

My surgery date is May 14. I start my 2 week liquids tomorrow. I guess it came out wrong as I was typing. I also have 2 week liquids after surgery.
