Topic: RE: 3 days to go
Hi everyone. My surgery is the 19th as well. I am so anxious good and bad, excited, and so ready to get on wiht it!
Good luck to you. Liquid diet has been rough the last 2 days but i think that is to be expected and my Dr is very strict about it to so i will keep at it but i really cannot wait to have something more savoryI cannot take any more yogurt or pudding jello, BLAH! I know this is all worth the end result! See you on the losers bench

Topic: RE: I've Been Banded!
Congrats to the both of you! I was banded on Monday and today has been the best day so far. Remember to have some Gas-X strips or something similar on hand....the gas can get BAD after a day or so!

Topic: RE: Positive things about pre op liquid diet
Day one for me today on the pre-op diet. I did have some saltines with my strained cream of soup. Thanks for helping us look at the brighter side of this. Good Luck to all!!

Topic: RE: I've Been Banded!
Congratulations!!  I too was banded yesterday.  I went in at 730 and was home by noon.  I think that if I didn't have a small hiatal hernia repair (completely unexpected) then I would be doing great.  I have tenderness and pressure too, but more so my diaphragm hurts when I cough and deep breathe.  Overall, it is not bad at all. It is still hard to belive that the surgery that I have been waiting for is over.  Now the hard work begins.

Good luck to everyone.
