Post-op one day and thrilled to have that foreign body (my LAP-BAND®) removed from my body. I had terrible complications. I'm sore but much relieved.

The best is Gold Standard-try rocky road or double chocolate. I order it on the Internet. Google Gold Standard. <a href="http://www.3fatchicks.net/index11.php"><img src="http://www.3fatchicks.net/img/bar04/slider-situp/lb/0/130/33/.png" border="0"></a>

Focus on your wonderful wieght loss-that's what it's all about!:wink2:

COngratulations on your great weight loss!, and I'm happy to hear you are doing well. Yes, I'm sore but feeling better every day. I'm getting frustrated b/c the scale has not gone anywhere since the day before surgery! (I did lose 12 pounds before surgery.)

A great sign! My surgery was 7/7-also a good sign, I hope!

Thanks for the warm welcome. And yes. it feels great to be taking control of my life!

I am also happy with my decision. It's good to be on the other side of the surgery, isn't it?

How did your surgery go? I'm so glad it's over-the anticipation is always the worst. B/c of the pre-op diet, I'm usd to drinking and not eating. So far, so good.

I've been on Clear Liquids for a week, and have lsot 7.5 pounds. It is hard but it gets easier. After day 4I had enough energy to exercise and work. I treasure my two daily yogurts and get by on lots of Jello. What has saved me is broth-sometimes, you need something hot! Get a vcariety pack of Protein shakes to keep it fresh. COnsider picking up some chicken broth at a Chinese or Vietnamese restaurant for a "treat."

Kudos on your weight loss. THanks a million for the inspiration.

I am blown away that each of you took the time to help me. I found each of your posts to be very inspiring and they helped me get through another clear-lliquid day. You are the BEST! Thank you.

I am inspired by your GREAT attitude. Thanks!

My surgery is scheduled on July 7 with Dr. Kim in Celebration, FL. I am scared but at the same time I am so excited. I have been on clears for 6 days now, and I feel proud becasue I've never done anytinig like this before. It is getting easier and I'm able to be more active than I was on days 1-4. I've lost 7 pounds so far.

Wow, Aunt Lucy, what an accomplishment! Thanks so much for your inspirational words.
