OK I just found out that me and Surgery4me have the same doctor and my surgery is right after hers on Aug. 6th....How cool is that! Another good website is calorieking.com

Hi Everyone...I had my pre-op yesterday! I got my test results back from my blood work and I'm so happy that I'm still in good health. I been worried that maybe because of my weight I was borderline pre-diabetic or something....but I'm not!!!:thumbup: I hope everyone's doing better than I am on your pre-op diets...thank god my doctor only wants be to lose 3 more pds!

Vegas...Thanks for the explanation! That makes sense! Maybe I will get a pair.LOL Welcome all new August All-Stars!

I'm glad were staying overnight, I'd rather be watch over during the first night and get alittle time to adjust to the new port!(:

Sam....Your too funny "miss can I see your port"LOL I know I have issue's!LOL I almost went bypass just because of that darn port!(: You need to change your profile settings so I can show you some love on your page!LOL You have it set so that no one can leave you messages or even send a private message to you threw here. My surgery date is August 6th at 9:30am. Gosh Diane is already done and they should be getting ready to start on Candance right now! You have only 5 more days!!!(:

AWW....Piper is so cute!

Hi fatbegone! It was so nice meeting you today!! I emailed you all today but, yours bounced back. PM me and give you your email address again. Thanks!!

Hi Everyone...I have alot of reading to do to get caught up with you all! My son had a soccer tournament this weekend in Carlsbad, and then played in the Championship game today and won! In between games I got to Nordstrom for the Anniversary Sale and did some school shopping for the kids! Man I love that store, I worked there 8 years and can I tell you how much I miss my discount!!!! Anywho, I'm getting to ready to go to bed I've had a long day! I have my pre-op in the morning so I'm excited!! Vegas, Moe & Sask...I'm glad you found this thread!

Hi Everyone....I hope you all had a great weekend. Congrats to all you that just got your dates and welcome to the August All-Stars! Be sure to stop by the August Forum and get on the master list (I think it's called August Roster) that was started so we can all keep track of who's being banded in August and when. Vegas-thank's for posting that shopping list, I copied and pasted it in my documents. OK, sorry if this is a "blonde" question.....but, why would someone need toilet tongs????

I'm trying to delete a tread I started....and I don't know how.:ohmy:

Well, I've been in Carlsbad this weekend for my son's soccer tournament and I have managed to gain all 8 lbs that I had lost back in 3 days!!! I am not happy right now!!! I'm really hoping it's just water weight because I truly did not eat THAT much. I was trying so hard too because I wanted to go into my pre-op appointment on Tuesday at my pre-surgery goal of 10 lbs or darn close to it! I've gone back and forth between getting bypass or lap band because I'm so afraid of failing with the band! I really wanted to prove to myself that I can do this! So as of this afternoon I'm back on liquids, if I gained it back in 3 days maybe I can lose it in 3 days:confused: I guess I'll have to wait and see.

Congrats on your approval!

Hey everyone....I'm been super busy this week and I have fallen off the band wagon...I'll be out of town this weekend for my son's soccer tournament so I'm going to start back up on Monday. But, I am going to make sure I get out walk, I don't run in public...I have an out body experience just thinking of the thought of my fat flying everywhere!! Have a great weekend!:thumbdown:

tnag...Thanks so much for your advice! And congrats on getting your band! I wish you a speedy recovery!!!(:

That bites! I'm afraid of something like that happening to me. My insurance "covers my surgery".....but, after my deductible and some "filing fee" (because the insurance doesn't pay enough to cover the doctor's fee???????)....I'm still paying $8200 out of pocket.

Ok....What does PB mean?????LOL I really don't know!

I'm getting banded Aug 6th too. Good luck to you and your sister!!

Thanks so much! That's a great tip.(:

Well, I decided to start my pre-op diet early to see how I was going to handle the whole two weeks on just liquids thing! And I made it a whole 24 hours...that's a big deal for me! That is until I ended up being so light headed to the point I truly thought I was going to pass out...it was a trippy feeling!! So, I ate real food and after a little while I felt much better. After that experience I got on the scale and I had lost 2 lbs in one day! That really motivated me so I've really be watching my intake this week and I have lost 8 pounds!!!! Who would have thunk it...you eat less..you lose weight! I have lost 8 lbs before in one week but, that's because I went to the weight Dr. and got diet pills and water pills....this time I did all on my own! I'm super excited about it! I just hope I can maintain it when I go on vacation next week! I can lose weight taking diet pills but, I don't like the way it makes me feel and after awhile my heart will start racing....not good! So, I'll stop taking them and gain all the weight back plus some ! That's why I decided to get the Lab Band....it will help me not feel as hungry and not attack my heart while doing it. I know that there's risk involved but, I think it out weights what diet pills can do to you in the long run!
