I have my 1st appointment with the doctor and dietition,Neutritionist,I hope there is more of the Dr's team there so I can get more than 1 thing done at a time,I guess I am so excited,,,I Havn't had my birth-day(band-day) scheduled yet, I kinda wish it was,...I want to see how well I would do (can you see your self skinny?) I ask my self that all the time.

Hi, I have my first appt with my surgeon on Jan 5th. I'm so excited. To me the liquid diet is like a trial of what to expect right after surgery. I'll do whatever I have to do. I love this site. Seeing and hearing from everyone is great inspiration and motivation. Good Luck to all of us and Congratulations to all the successes!!:D :D :D
