    Congrats! Susan is right. You don't want to have to deal with caffeine withdrawal while you're recovering from surgery.
  • Congratulations! Can't wait to see how wonderful you are going to do!

    Congratulations! I know mine couldn't come fast enough, and I am already seeing great benefits and I am under 3 weeks out! Do you have any type of suggested pre-op diet? Mine was all protein and produce, and only 800 calories a day for the 2 weeks prior, and it really did help a lot. But at the very least, the other posters are correct, no more carbonation and caffeine!:flowerforyou:
  • congrats on your new journey

    Congrats and best wishes. I was just banded on 9/10. Is it hard? Yes. Is it worth it? YES!! Just follow everything your doctor says to the letter and listen to the great advice of everyone around here who has been through it before us and you will set yourself up to succeed.
    Best wishes.
