Support Please for a Milky Pre-op Bander!

Hi there, this is my first post and Im due my surgery at Dolan Park under Mr Halstead on 11.9.12. Started milk and yogurt diet today and am starving but it'll all be worth it. I just wondered if anyone knew of any support group/networks/meetings around the South Yorkshire area. Or is all support normally on sites like this one? Thank you

 

[Dimples70]

Ive set reminders on my phone for when milk, yoghurt etc is due - that way I know my next meal is around the corner - typically 8am whilst driving to work I'll have a slim fast - 11am yoghurt 2pm another slim fast 5pm Oxo - 7pm milky coffee - 9pm another milky coffee - just trying to eat/drink every 2-3 hours - x. So far so good x

Hi Paul - I'm being banded on the 13th at The Hospital Group by Dr Sirgusad - he told me to do 1000 calories a day or the milk diet - I asked him if I could do slim fast as the ready made ones makes it easier - (also mentioned about carb content ) he said that was fine - my current weight is 15 stones and I'm 5ft 6 making my BMI 34 - don't know if that made a difference - having the band because of medical reasons which are all weight related x

Ah ok I'm having my band at Dolan on the 30th. I think every surgeon is different re pre op diet. Good luck with ur journey

Hello

I had mine done with the same Hosiptal and sme dr as ur haing on 25/8/12
I was told to do the same as u 1000k or milk yoguarts
I choose to do a week of 1000k then a week of milk and yoguarts to kick start my weight lost!
I was told to have slim fast soup or milkshake on the milk and yoguarts diet as well. I do think this is because our bmi is not that high as my coz was told somthink completely different but she has got 5stone more to lose.so I do think it goes by ur bmi and the person doing it.

Good lick and keep going x

What I found to get rid of my grumbly belly is keep drinking drinking drinking I no u get fed up with it but tbh I went throw loads of coffee as that did it for me or try bovil drink as it got taste and u will feel like maybe u had some think to eat .
I found pre op diet hard as it was school hols and I took some time off to be with my children going out and keeping me busy helped but did suffer with head ake v bad 4 day before op I call my patience cordatior she was brilliant she told me to have some tuna and a small pot for t that day then get straight back on it, which I did do and that seen me back on plan.
Best luck and stay strong x
