After three months of Optifast my surgery date will be Aug. 6. Now I can starting getting nervous. I am ready to join the banded though.

Its human nature to be nervous bigharleyguy......I was a bit nervous but so looking forward to being banded....I was banded June 8th 2006 and have reached goal now.....I would do this again in a heartbeat, outside of marrying my Al this is certainly the best thing that I have ever done!

Good luck to you and congrats on your date! I also hope to get my surgery in August.

Thanks for the kind words and encouragement I'll let you all know how it goes. I am a little concerned about the post-op recovery diet, seems pretty extreme, but I know it has to be done. I have been doing well on Optifast for the last month and a half, so I know I can do it.

Congrats on your dates BigHarleyGuy and 2bthinagn ! My birthday is 8/04 and I'm hoping for an August date also. Keeping my fingers crossed all goes well for all of us August people.

I am unsure what your doctor requires as post-op diet but it seems you could continue the Optifast as your liquid food.

Good Luck!
