I am so excited & nervous at the same time, I tried so hard & trying to stay w/ the preop diet but I have cheated big time hopefully I can still get banded.

Hi Ladyann, unfortunately, I cheated as well. Only on the last 2 days was i exactly on track when I got really angry with myself

Some doctors do not even require the pre-op diet. I still managed to loose 7-8 lbs. We shall see if they send me home tomorrow

My Surgeon did not have me on a liquid diet. He just asked me to cut back & try to lose 20 pounds before my date which was in September. We started the pre-op health updates in June which found several things so I'm glad for all the tests & health updates. After the band placement I did not have any gas or pain. I think his method as a good one as I was already on my way to not eating that big quantity of food. And after my monthly appointments & slow fills I did throw up on occasion. Then I started really listening to what my body (& band)were telling me and things went well. I do not talk to friends about the band as I don't want to hear their opinions.

I wish you all good sailing. Keep smiling!

Banded... Ouch this pain

[ladyann2323 16]

I'm out, sore & sleepy thank god no nausea (at least not yet) going home to rest.

[heather316 72]

I am glad you made it through. I only had nausea when I stood up and when I started drinking, basically when the gas made me burp. Take the pain killer for the night, you need to rest.
