Wd hunni and congratulations having a dairy is so helpful for support, thru the good and the bad wishing you all the best on your band journey x x x also to lovely and to bex wtg girls x x x x

Hi and welcome!!

I am a recent band opper and have only positive things to say about my decision to have it!

I look forward to hearing how you get on!

This site is fantastic for anything u need to know or don't know u need yet!

I have lost 3 stone 1.5lbs including my pre op diet and ideally still have around another 7 to go!! I take it a stone at a time...that way it doesn't feel like such uphill battle xx

Aww thanks ladies ,you've done amazing, did u both do the milk n yog diet if so how did u find it ?

I don't very low cal / low carb pre op diet, which was ok...after about day 3 the hunger stopped but even before hat it wasn't too bad..think as long as you remember why doing it!! xxx

Mine was food too due to a dairy intolerance so cant help much, but as Sharon says if you remember the end results you will get thru no worries x

Welcome aboard ! Xx

Day 4 on pre op still doing ok,I'm a bit week today tho but I think that's probably the cough/cold I've got. each day is dragging lol
I've lost 6lb so far

Well day 1 on milk n yog has gone ok
I tried the bovril drink and spat it out tastes vulgar lol
Bath n early night for me x

Hope all is going well!! As if there's only 6 days left!! I'm craving chips and pizza!! This is crazy!! X

On day 5,I have done really well I'm totally in the zone,I've lost 13lb so far
Looking forward to next week having something other than milk n yog but it certainly hasn't been as hard as I thought it might be

Spoke to THG today I have to be there at 7.00 on Tuesday, so excited xxx
