My preop is eggs for Breakfast and veggies(salad) and 4-6 oz of meat veggies to snack in between if hungry. First few days were hard but now Im not even hungry and have to remind my self to eat LOL. However because of this I'm thinking I can loose this way why do I need the band?..... then I remember all the times I lost 60 then gained 70lbs back......Its going to work out!!!!!

Exactly! LOL. I'm getting so anxious...8 Days until surgery. Can anybody let me borrow their patience please? Hehe

Im tomorrow too...yay for us....8:30 check in with a 10 am surgery :)

Waited so long too, am so ready and not the least bit nervous about the surgery. I am more nervous to come home to my 3 children and hubby who needs help because of parkinsons...I really wish I could have a day of peace to myself to rest somewhere other than home( I know that sounds sad- as that is where you should want to go to rest)...that is the part that is not going be easy for me! Good Luck and cant wait to check in with everyone tomorrow

Well!!!!!!! Im Banded! 5 days out.. Feelin Great, now that the gas in my left shoulder is pretty much gone. I can get up and down by myself, but need help getting up from lying position on the couch. Bummer, but funny. I go back to work tomorrow,, I think things will be pretty smooth. I heard of someone having to take shots of heparin in the belly after surgery,., i thought this was a little abnormal.. Any input would be great. Im now eating oatmeal, and applesauce aling with shakes. I try to drink drink drink. Im not very hungry, which is a true miracle in itself... Things are good.. Thank you for all of your support within the lapband talk site... wonderful.. How is everyone else feeling. Any questions??

Good luck to all of you having surgery tomorrow! I certainly haven't regretted my choice. I have already lost 23 pounds since preop and surgery 2 weeks ago. I feel great and already have a lot more energy.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
