I'm finally going to be banded in a couple weeks!! I'm currently doing the pre op diet and with a little help from the Lord will meet my 10% weight loss requirement. Any advice help, or how much you all lost during pre op diet would be great

Congratulations! You will do well on your pre-op just stick to the instructions that your Dr. gave you and you should lose the required weight. I lost about 15 pounds on my pre-op and my husband lost 18.

I too get banded Dec. 17th. Super excited and ready for this new journey.

My 10% is 26 pounds and she is determined that I can loose that much. I'm having a hard time, 12 more days to go! I'm very excited too Barb. I hope and pray the next 12 days go by very quickly.

My Dr wants me to lose anywhere from 9 to 15 lbs. I too hope these next days fly by...I keep telling myself that it will get better every day. We can do this.....

Keep your eye on the prize...Believe you will suceed.....

I had to lose 5 percent during a 6 month supervised Drs visit, I lost considrably more, Than that, during the pre op diet I lost 18 pounds. I lost a total of 80lbs by the time I had my surgery but holding steady now and waiting for my 1st fill.

Congrats on your date I was banded on Monday you won't regret it

I was banded on 12/18. Still pretty sore. How are you feeling?

I'm now 3 weeks post Op and feeling a ton better. I'm trying to get use to eating every 3 hours or so and I'm always thirsty
