Taking Back My Life

Well I started my 10 day pre-op diet on August 25, 2008. My banding day was September 4, 2008. My starting weight was 240 lbs on a 5'1 frame. NOT good. My knees were hurting everytime I would get near stairs. To date I have lost 25lbs. (Sept. 13). I am really ready to get off these liquids and get some food in me with substance so I can exercise better. My energy level is low due to lack of food. I have my first "adjustment" appt scheduled for October 8th. I have about one more week until pureed foods. YIPPEE!!! Life just keeps getting better. :cursing:
