Lap Band on August 19th

Hi...I have surgery scheduled for the 19th...10 DAYS!!! I found this forum for some support. I am very excited to get the surgery but I am awaiting my insurance approval. Haven't heard anything from the surgeons office so I'm guessing no news is good news :). Pre-Op on August 14th!!!!

    Congrats and good luck. Are you doing a preop diet? if yes, you should check with the doctor to confirm the surgery is on so you can be compliant with pre surgical requirements

    No, I haven't been told about a pre-op diet....I was wondering about that myself...my pre-op appt. is on the 14th and I just had my consult last Tuesday and it was never mentioned so I don't know if they will give me one at my Pre-Op or not
