Tomorrow is the big day!

Well, tomorrow morning I am scheduled to get banded. I am getting anxious, but excited as well. I am excited to get started on my new life!

I am hungry today on the pre-op diet, but wonder how you all felt hunger-wise post-op? I am talking before mushies. I will be on Clear liquids only a week after the surgery, add Protein shakes the next week, and mushies on the 3rd and 4th weeks. I am nervous about how I will feel.

Thank you all for your support and answers! Have a wonderful day!:confused:

No answers for you, but lots of good luck wishes for you! I'm behind you by 17 days. You'll do great!

Good luck tomorrow!

I am on day 4 post-op and I am not as hungry as I was pre-op, but I am hungry...I won't lie. However, it's a different kind of hunger - my tummy is growling and feels hollow, but the thought of eating kind of makes me queasy. It's odd.

I'm pretty much on the same post-op schedule as you - I'm sure we can do it!

Good luck I will be banded on December 7th and looking forward to it.

I am 4 days post op as well and felt a bit of hunger yesterday but it passed, and today I am not hungry at all. I can do protein shakes starting today so I am happy to be out of the clear phase.

Thanks everyone. Feeling a bit less anxious now!

i drink a whole lot of water,i thought i was gonna be hungry but i thank goodness i was not.i was on ensure for two weeks.i ounce 3 times a day. i lost 19lbs during two weeks post-op.wishing you the best tomorrow.

Tomorrow is my day too!!! Today has been pretty easy for me, but very surprisingly! I really haven't been hungry on this pre-op liquid diet. Today is the only day I had to be on liquids, other than my phase 1 breakfast today. Then at noon I had to drink the magnesium stuff, but found grape flavored thanks to the NP that I met with at final weigh in.
