starting full liquid diet before band removal

Feb 06, 2017

I've had the lap band for 11 years.  At most, I've lost about 50 pounds with the band.  I'm currently about 20 pounds below having the band and have taken the past 2 years to think about next steps.  AFter a lot of soul searching, I decided to have the band removed and go to the sleeve.  Band removal is scheduled for 2/17 and the sleeve is 5/19/17 (day after my 45th birthday).  I was asked to start a full liquid diet 2 weeks before band removal but i am starting a few days late with this being my first day!  As it is getting later in the afternoon (when i am more hungry), I'm not sure I can make the rest of the day. Here's hoping i can drop 10-15 pounds on protein shakes!
