I'm waiting to check in and get this party started!

Awww. Thanks! I'm freaking out on the inside for sure. I hope they give me meds to calm down when I get there at 5:30 AM. Surgery is at 7am. I can't believe I'm doing this. I'm starting to smile a little to think that this is a new beginning to who I really want to be! I pray I can do it!

Holy MOLY

I feel like it won't happen to me. When ppl talk about losing a huge amount in the first few months. I feel like it won't happen for me.

Oh no. My name fell off the list!! Oh well it's Aug. 8th. Getting butterflies!

I love this!! We are from all over the place!

Thanks

Baton Rouge LOUISIANA!!!!

I found them. Zero carb Isopure RTD 40 grams of protein. I don't have Krogers

Upper GI test is nasty. It went in pink and milky and came out pink and milky and explosive! Not cool . I do love my nutritionist. She is awesome. Anyway. Sorry with the TMI. For the first few days of liquids only what are the brand of protein drinks you are using? The clear liquid protein drinks??

Aug, 8th!!!!!!!!!!!! I bit all my nails off already!

Thanks. I'll try it

I'm so happy to hear this. I have to go to work 2 days after.

My dr. Said no pre diet is needed. He said he argues with other doctors about it. All he told me was eat light for 3 days before surgery.

Do any of you get stuff from smoothie king?

THANKS!

thank you. I did have a eval in April. I'm just nervous about it all. It's going to be really hard with the liquids and mush food. and then never eating hamburger meat again. but I have to do it. If I say no to this then I have to say yes to brain surgery.

Define CLEAR LIQUIDS?

THanks! Yes I had to meet with all the specialist. I have to do this. So I have to stick with the lifestyle changes. I'm just really worried, by BF had lap band and all she did was throw up after she ate and it ended up slipping and she had to have it removed a couple years later. Plus she didnt lose any weight. I dont want that to happen to me.

Let me start over, I was typing this then it went away! Here goes! I was pick from a "lottery" to be in a study through my ins. about weightloss surgeries. I was hoping to get the sleeve because I've seen others do amazing with it, but I was chosen for lap band. Back in Apr. I did all the appts. with all the specialist and did my 2 week liquid diet. on the last day of the diet I had appendicitist and had emergeny surgery. So they put my file on hold. I got a call two days ago saying the panel chose lap band and I have to have it within the month. I start work Aug. 10 so they scheduled it for Aug 7. I dont even know what to think about all this. I'm freaking out. I dont want to tell anyone about it. I'm hoping I can get to work after two days. IDK. I have to do this surgery to save myself from a worse surgery. I have a rare brain disease. If I shock my system and lose a lot of weight it is possible that it will go into remission. If I dont have the surgery then I have to have a shunt put in my brain. I really dont want a hole drilled into my head so Lap Band it is!!! There is a chance this wont work and I'll need the shunt anyway but I gotta try. But what if something goes wrong and I die in surgery and my kids dont have a mom because she went in for surgery because she's a fat ass. Now please if you are reading this, help me prepare. How do i get my mind set for this?

AUG 7. I'm worried about everything!!!!

Sorry I hit send. Anyway. That's amazing you did IKEA after 2 days. I just had my appendix out in apr. and I could barely move for a week.

IKEA after two da

Yes it's free. I signed up to go in for check ups once every 6 mos. for 5 yrs. you're right I should just do it.
