Lap Band Scheduled for April 28

Hi everyone!

My procedure is scheduled for April 28.  I am excited and a bit nervous.  I have been on my liquid pre-op diet for 2 days now.  I am starving - 600 calories just doesn't cut it...but it will all be worth it in the end. 

Have any of you noticed an increase in urination frequency when starting the liquid diet?  I feel like I am running to the bathroom every 20 minutes!

 I'm also on the 28th. Glad I only have to do the liquid diet the day before and then pureed for a month after.

Good luck, I'm sure it will go well.

OMG - yes - I was getting up 2 times during the night I was peeing so much during my liquid diet!   Now I'm 1 week post-op and can't get enough liquids in!  Those 2 weeks on liquids were the hardest of my whole life, but definitely worth it!  You're almost there!

Hey we have the same surgery date HORRAY!!! i'm nervous, excited and scared all at the same same time. but i was having problems with my pre-op b/c i was hungry no still hungry but i lost 8lbs already so thats a good thing. and yes i go to the bathroom all day too. please keep me posted on your progress i'm getting banded too.

The pre-op diet has been good for me too (hard but good results).  I'm down about 12 lbs since last Monday.  Yippee!!  I will keep you posted, and you do the same.  Good luck!

I will keep you posted..
