A Grand and Glorious hello to all this beautiful Sunday afternoon. I have not been banded yet, but hope to be very soon. In the midst of final research and scheduling right now. Looking forward to regaining a healthy body and getting my life back.

Take the time to look all around and you will find a wealth of information. Be sure to look on the front page of this forum and read the postings under Pre/Post surgical questions and the FAQs.

    Hi little ed,

    I too have not had my banding. I am in the process of doing my Opti fast 2 week liquid diet. I did really well the first few days and now I am in the middle of my 14 days. I have my surgery scheduled Dec. 11th. There are moments when the hind leg of my dog is starting to look good to chew on. Anyone have any ideas on how to get through this last week of choices of strawberry or chocolate Optifast? I have tried tea, SF soft drinks, broth, etc. What is keeping me going right now is that I have been so compliant that I just don't want to undo a weeks worth of hard work.
