Hi, my surgery (Lapband) is set for 9/29 and the pre-op appointment with my doctor is 9/25, I know they will give me instructions for what to eat and how much, etc. But I just wonder can someone give me a rough idea ? so I can have some stuff at home when I come home, without sending the husband out to get things for me, you know how that is. I need all the help I can get, I did a lot of researchers on the web including this site, but I still felt like I don't know enough. Is it right that I will be on liquid on first 2 weeks ? I have to go back to work in one week, so I'm trying to figure everything out. Does any one had the band can give me some insight ? Thank you for all the help and support.

ASK YOUR DR....HAVE IT READY BEFORE YOU GET HOME...HELPS YOU FEEL REASSURED. PROTIENE DRINKS (THERES SOME GOOD ONES OUT THERE) I CHOSE SLIM FAST BUT THEN AGAIN I CAN EAT A *****ILDRENS VITAMINS. AND VIACTIV SOFT CALCIUM CHEWS. WHAT I FORGOT WAS ANTACID TABLETS...DRS MOVING ME TO SOMETHING THATS ONCE A DAY THOUGH SO IM NOT FILLING UP ON THAT INSTEAD OF HEALTHY STUFF, GOODLUCK TO YOU
