Im so excited that my day for my surgery is coming so quickly. The pre op diet has not been as bad as I thought it was going to be. So I was wondering if anyone else has a date around that, that us going through the same things?

Hi! I was banded 8/23 too. How'd it go for you? Mine was great, spent night in hospital and home today. Lots of discomfort from gas pains but overall feeling good. Took a few Vicodin today and that helped me relax a bit. Keep in touch and good luck! Jason

I also spent the night in the hospital. Im a little surprised about how much pain i'm having. I never thought I would be able to feel liquids going down. Can you? Also im finding that I like to drink water/ vitamin water more than juices.

I'm drinking a lot of diet iced tea, jello and just had protein shake this morning. I loaded up on pain pills yesterday and woke up today feeling so much better. I've been walking a lot too. Jello and ice pops are also great. Surprised how little hunger I feel. How are you doing?

I have not had any hunger yet which i'm grateful for, every hour I feel closer to my normal self. I have a little bit of pain when a cough but not much. i'm still on clear liquids till Monday then I will b able to move to full liquids yay!
