    Hiya

    Initial consult for me was to check that banding would be the right surgery for me (not the ballon or bypass etc). Surgeon was great and answered all my questions and also advised re: pre op milk diet to shrink my liver. Had my band fitted on April 6th and am pleased that I did it, including 1 week pre op milk diet I have lost 17lbs in 15 days. Feeling pretty tired due to liquid diet for 2 weeks but pain free. Good luck with the consult :lol:
