It's very heartening to hear success stories from the banders, after hearing a lot at WLS meetings (and the info that the hospital team gives out) that the band option often leads to less successful and slower weight loss.

I guess it depend how much you want it to work, and I am guessing (from your other thread suggesting a 2 month lead time to the operation) that you paid for your op privately and possibly if you have paid for it you bloomin want it to work !!

CONGRATS!

My day starts with a small micro porridge and coffee then small bowl of soup for lunch (homemade is best) still miss having crusty bread to dip ha then mid afternoon I have a small bar of chocolate or a couple of squares from the freezer it makes it last longer for evening tea I have steak pie some mash pot and veg I like carrots but tinned ones as the are easier to get down some nights I have chicken,stew,steak but I only seem to be able to eat these with some sort of sauce as for exercise I only walk my dog as I've never been one for doing to much but I do walk a fair distance and it saves spending monies for a gym hope this helps you might be able to eat a lot of different foods that I can't manage best to just play around with them and you will soon learn the best ones for you as I still can't eat fruit even after a year I have tried but end up being sick every time so I've gave up just take my multivitamins so I'm not missing out Good luck x
