WAITING

No word yet form my insurance I hope to hear something by June 22 maybe I will get my Band at the end of July. I'm trying to get my mind and body ready for the transition by drinking protein shakes and salad only. My goal is to lose 30 lbs before surgery. I am so ready for this I can hardly wait to get my TOOL!!!!!!! Best Wishes to everyone on there weight loss journey. 

You don't think that after your surgery you'll only be able to have protein shakes and salad, do you?

No, I'm trying to shrink my liver before surgery so my Dr could see. When he put the Band on me the two week liquid he will put me to before surgery to me it's not enough. Also this prepare me for the rest of my life on a low carb diet.

Why do you think a two week pre-op diet is not enough? Did your doctor say that?

i wish you luck with your very restricted diet. I assume you will eat normally after the post-op period; for me the whole point of surgery is to stop the endless cycle of fad diets. For me, living on salad and liquids would not prepare me for living the rest of my life on a low carb diet - but then I have never been on a low carb diet!
