I'm scheduled to get banded on 7/18 at 10am.

I am having a wide range of emotions right now. Excitement, nervousness, anxiousness, happiness, and a small bit of sadness.

I'm determined to follow all the exact guidelines so that I can be success story and fully experience all the positive effects of the band.

Wish me luck and I will be checking in this site...often!

Welcome and congrats! You'll find plenty of support and friendship here as well as lots of useful information. I wish you the best on your life changing decision and journey.

Thank you so much for the kind words and well wishes!

This time next month, you'll be posting that you've lost 15-20 pounds in your 1st month.

Best wishes!

I'm hoping to report that. Thanks for the well wishes

Good luck! I go to my first seminar Tue night. So excited to start the process.

Is this prep op or post op?? My doctor doesn't required a pre op diet, I had to do 2 weeks liquid after surgery and 1 week mushy foods and then introduce solids little by little! All depends on the doctor!

I didn't have to do a 2 week pre-op liquid diet either. All that is recommended is clear liquids the day before surgery. So I guess tomorrow I'll be drinking Crystal Light and water & eating a light lunch/dinner....like salmon

Good. Luck and let us know how it goes!
