I starred being consious of what went into my mouth a few months before surgery too. It made the metifast diet much eaiser, for the two weeks prior to the band that I was told to. It gave me some time to get used to the idea that... This is it! It got my mind ready for when it would be manditory. and for me, this worked well. After surgey it wasn't such a shock to change EVERYTHING about the way I ate. I found Metifast easy to do at work. My Dr. gave me the two week supply. I paid 17,000. so "gave it" is sort of an under statement With the right mind set you WILL sucseed.

I wish you well.

I'm new to the lapbandtalk.com and reading your note here is very encouraging to me! Congratulations!!! I saw you had a myspace but it is set to private... I was banded Sept 21, 07 and have lost 30 lbs., but nothing in the last month. Not sure what's happened, but I feel stuck. I'd love to know more about your journey.

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
