I am having surgery on the 22nd also. I am excited and a little nervous. I am on a veggie, salad and shake diet until saturday then I am full on shakes provided by the hospital. Can we all communicate with each other and see how we are doing? I wasnt obese all my life I am 53 and started gaining weight at 40. I had lap band in 2009, lost 75 pounds then it slipped and I had it removed last summer. So this has been a long journey. I gained all the weight back when they removed the band. I almost knew I would, I didnt even try, really. No one to blame but me. I did purchase a magic bullet and looking at some of the recipes in the book, they look very tastey. I live in Cincinnati and I would like to lose 100 pounds. How about you? So glad we found each other
