Im being banded Aug. 23. Im starting my self imposed liquid diet today. My dr. doesnt require a liquid pre op diet but im gonna do one any way just to ensure no complications of a fatty liver. Wish me luck!!!!

That is exactly what I did! I lost 31 pounds prior to surgery. I only had to lose 15 pounds according to dietian. And the doctor only wanted me too fast 24 hours before surgery. But I followed a liquid diet mostly to get my body and brain used too this is it for awhile. I've had no problems at all, even with after my band date of Aug 6. I'm recovering just fine and even the Protein shakes taste great.

Best wishes and you're doing it the right way.

I don't have to start my pre-op diet until September 10th, but I'm taste-testing different shake brands now. I had the Unjury chocolate Classic this morning. Not bad...I could drink it when necessary.

Yes, I only have used Unjury so far. I like it. I can usually drink it no problems but for some reason today I'm having a problem choking my first one down. I know it's all in my head. Gotta get over that.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
