I just joined the forums today. I began my pre-op diet today also....this is going to be 'interesting'. sigh.
My surgery is scheduled for December 15. I'm very nervous and scared, but also optimistic, relieved and excited. Can't wait to be ME again. I've been my alternate self for far too long.

i am so happy, just heard from the doctor's office that my last appointment with my surgeon is this thursday and my pre-surgery admittance testing at the hospital is friday morning. i start my 2 week liquid diet on thursday. december 1st is just around the corner. i can't wait. can you see me smiling through the computer? i am smiling from ear to ear. i feel like a kid going to disney for the first time. i am so ready for this. i wish i did this ten years ago. but at 41, i am still young and have many many many happy years ahead of me.

OMG this could be a looooooooong list lol. We should just start a thread "1 Million reasons to get the Lapband"
I got two more.
-no more thigh rubbing
-no more knocking things and kids down with my butt lol

- being able to look at a picture of myself and love it;
- being able to look at myself and love me;
- being able to walk into a regular store and not say "excuse me miss, where is the plus size section?"
- this is a TMI but what the hell, being able to enjoy sex while being on top. did i say that out loud?
