I am so excited and appreciate the wealth of knowledge from this site. I will start my liquid diet on Friday. Does anyone have any advice? I am so excited!

im so jealous

It has been what has seemed like a long time. I am looking forward to the new start.

my advice?? try sticking to the diet as close as possible... (I didnt ) I dont regret it nothing happened (no complications) just that I would be a lot closer to my weigh loss goal thats all.

Happy Banding, keep us informed

Thank you so much. I will definitely keep everyone posted.

That's great!! So exciting. I wish you the best. Keep us posted! Oh, something I did ( I am not banded yet ) was I took a few face pics on my phone. Side views and front. They are horrible but when I think of eating something that is bad I look at those pics and change my mind pronto!

Hey, I'm getting banded on September 24th also!

Congrats! I can't wait to post the same thing! Keep us posted!

I can't wait for approval! Feels like it's taking forever!

If you haven't tried out Protein drinks to see which ones you like, you may want to do that now. Also, do some shopping to have your post-surgery necessities (soup broth, creme Soup, sf popsicles, etc).

Congrats!

A new dawn, what protein shakes have you tried that are good?
