thank you Budie... and Jars517 mine is not till 3 p.m and i have to stay over night im kind of happy to be staying over night i will be away from my kids and husband lol. Best of luck to you also. Hey maybe we can compare notes.

Ok so today is the my last day of the pre-opt diet and what a challenge it was. But I succeed non the less. I will weigh myself tomorrow to give you guys another update on my weight loss. Also, BDay is tomorrow can you say super excited. not nervous at all.

omg thanks for the info i had no idea.

you are so right so what i did was buy some sugar free gum and that has really helped me.

ok people its day 12 of the pre- opt diet and i must say im doing better that i ever thought i would. if i haven't told yall thank you for all the support yall have given me. two more days then is my bad day.

Good Evening all, Just wanted to stop by and give a little up date. I had my final appointment today and everything went well. I got a tour of the floor after surgery, and went over some final information about the procedure. Then I get home and get a phone call from the hospital and they wanted to go over some information that was needed before I get there and once I hung up the phone it hit me. My surgery is really going to happen in 6 day. Can you say excited.com:)

Hey Debbie how are you making out since you been banded. Any insight you can give me will be appreciated. I will be banded on the 21st. And I sure will keep you posted.

So today is day 8 and as of yesterday im down 7 pounds. Who would of thought It. In the beginning of my journey I didn't think the me losing weight was a reality but as I read each and one of the post on year yall give me hope. Received a phone call today for the doctors and the moved my time from 1 p.m to 3 p.m. and it just clicked in my head. That this is becoming a reality I'm changing my life for the better. Well just wanted to share what was on my mind. Hope everyone have a good day.

yes we can i did better today than i though i would i will add you to my friends list

Hey Hd213, my surgery is the 21st. when do you go for yours and when is your surgery

Just giving a little update. I'm on day six so far so good. yesterday was so so. A co-worker was eating some old bay wings and boy oh boy did they smell good. She offered me so and as bad as I wanted to eat just one I didn't. I'm really proud of myself for that. With this pre-opt diet I'm learning more of myself each day. Mainley that I do have will power and I can do this. :wub:

Well today I weighed myself and to my surprise I lost 4 pounds. I no it's not a lot but I'm happy.

Good Evening all, So today I'm in day 4 of this pro-opt diet and i can say i feel great. But I see why they say drink plently of water. If you don't you will pay for it....

lol thanks livestrong

Thanks Bea, I'm not going to lie it was hard.

So I have a co-worker who was banded in February, and when I tell you she has been helping me, she is a God Send. I'm half way through my my first day of pre-surgery liquid diet. When I felt myself getting hungry I went for a walk and it helped. I see that when the hungry pains come in to drink water and do things to take your mind off of it. Mind Over Matter!! I will be checking back in tomorrow. Plus I will be doing before and after pic's soon. Jan 21, 2013 will be here before I no it.

So today is day one of the liquid diet. I'm glad I'm working cause I don't know what I would do.

Bea if no one have told you i'm so proud of you. You have done and is doing a GREAT job.

So I finally got my date 01/21/13 and as of tomorrow I'm on a liquid diet for two weeks before my surgery.

Just wanted to wish everyone a very Merry and Blessed Christmas

Congrats and good luck
