Anybody planning on Dec2013 banding?

Welcome Thick2slim! Glad you found us, LOL. I am scheduled for the 27th of Dec. right after Christmas. I have also wondered how much I will lose and how quickly. It seems that there are all kinds of results depending on the amount of effort you put in. I plan to make the best of it. I've tried so many other diets and I am ready to get rid of this weight once and for all.

I definately knw the feeling...But this is a great way to go into the new year! What state are u in? Do you think liquids through Xmas will be hard for u?

Just left my pre op visit...im super excited now! Dec 5th cant get here quick enough!

I'm scheduled for 12/5! So happy! They said to start my pre-op diet the day after thanksgiving. It needs to get here quick because I keep "treating" myself and I don't want to gain more weight to have to lose... Ugh.

We get banded the same day! I start my liquid diet the Saturday after Thanksgiving. We can be "Band Buddies"!

Yay! So glad to have a band buddy!

Glad I got a chance to eat good. I'm even more prepared to start my liquid diet!

O, Happy Turkey Day!

Hi All,

I'm in Florida. The only Christmas food I really think will bother me is the actual Christmas dinner. Other than that, a 2 week liquid diet is what scares the heck out of me!

I get banded on Monday.....really nervous, but excited. So nice to have found this site so I can chat with others going through this experience Arlington, TX

Hi all, I am in Australia and am scheduled for surgery on the 20th. My birthday was last week so this is the best birthday and christmas present to myself EVER. Very excited. Please all chime back after your surgeries so we know how you are doing and to share your experiences.

Good morning. Does anyone know if the liquid part of egg drop soup is considered clear liquid?

Hey all,
