Down 10lbs in less than a week.

Well update! today i went to the docters office for my post op check up. Everything appears to be good I feel back to normal, fortunately i didn't need to take any pain meds post op and recovered fairly fast. This journey has been good so far the hardest part for me is the diet. I guess that is something I will battle with for the rest of my life. Food is truly an addiction the first two days I wanted to eat something so bad, eventhough i wasn't hungry.   The good news is i'm down 10lbs

Ready Set Go!

Ok so after re-scheduling my surgery i'm all set for friday the 29th. I got a call from the doctors office on thursday to start my pre-op diet. Today was my first day and I got to say it's hard. If anyone can give some good advise on getting through this it would be great. Iv'e noticed most people here are told to start two weeks prior, but im not complaining this week is going to be long.

Need Dr. advice...

Hello everyone! I am thinking of getting the lap band procedure done, but I’m having a hard time trusting a doctor. I was scheduled to have the surgery on December 18 with Dr. Michael Feiz but haven't gotten the best pre-op support from his staff to make me certain that these are the people to go with. At first I was being helped by one of his assistants Marissa who assured me that the process would be smooth. But after finding out that my surgery would have to be done at the hospital as requ
