Congrats on getting your lap band. I got mine on December 8th and it does take a lot of internal strength to get through the liquid diet. It is well worth it in the long run (that's what I keep telling myself)! My son is leaving in February to go to Basic Training in the Air Force and he will be gone for 3 months. I would like to surprise him when he comes back by losing some weight. I have been heavy my whole life and obesity runs in my family. I lost 10 lbs in my pre-surgery diet and I am now 235 lbs. My husband has been very supportive and we cash paid for the surgery. I don't enjoy exercising or sweating, but I have been told once you get into the routine you crave exercise. Good luck on your journey and keep us posted!
