Thanks! I leave in an hour! :thumbup:

You go girl! Unfortunately I too could drink/eat that in a sitting. Arn't you excited we will never be that hungry again?

Yaaa! Good for you! I go in tomorrow at 10am. :thumbup:

Good for you lil mama! You will soon get your fill & be on your way! I'm so excited for you!

You are not too far from me & around the same age... You should keep in touch with your progress. :thumbup:

Did you walk around right after your surgery? I hear that really helps with the pain... Good Luck! I go in tomorrow at 10am! I hope I can sleep. :thumbup:

I get banded in the morning at 10am... I am so ready to get my 1st fill I can't stand the wait! I hope I can sleep tonight... Wish me luck!!! :thumbup:

I was searching the internet last night for Lap Band... a video appeared on You Tube. You can actually see the procedure & even fills. There is so much info on the net for this procedure. :thumbup:

2 days to go!!!!!! I am so ready! I opted to do a 2 day fast (liquids only). I can't wait to feel full!

Keep me posted! I am on the 3rd!!!

That text above was for you...

I'm the day after you. Please keep in touch!

Where do you go for fills & unfills?

My band operation is on the 3rd (Sat.) I too was told not to diet. My BMI is 30-31. I thought it was odd so I've been binge-ing : ( I decided to do a clense tomorrow by eatting only fresh juiced veggies & drinking a pre-surgery drink that will absolutely clean me out. By Fri I should be completely empty. That will give me the 24hr fast I need and hopefully the jump start I nedd to drop this unwanted weight. Good luck to you all!

I plan on taking 2 days maybe 3. I too sit on my butt. ; )

Absolutely ma'am! You may be drinking too many calories... 5oz glass of wine is about 100 cals 1.5oz of alcohol is about 100 cals not to mention any mixers... Don't over do it. You came all this way, don't sabatoge yourself.

Wow thx for the info! I just called & was told they also send samples of other items that may be of use for free. Good info!

Will he do fills for non-patients?

Oct 3rd here!

Good luck girlfriend, I go in on Sat! I'm so ready to get this over with so I can get back to a normal size. Keep us all posted as to your success!

I'm due to see him Sat the 3rd... Any suggestions or advice? Did you pay in cash, money order or cashiers ck? Thx! BTW

From what I been reading, I would say yes. : (

I'm set for the 3rd of Oct with Dr Lopez Corvala in TJ. I'm hoping to lose 20lbs by Halloween! Anyone else in Los Angeles headed to TJ anytime soon? I'd love a bandster partner. My bmi is 30-31 I'm 5"7 195, 34 yrs. I know I won't drop as much as everyone else since I only have 40ish pounds to lose. If u don't live in LA but are getting banded soon with similar size & age, please contact me! Good luck to everyone!!!! Especially Oct bandsters!

That's wird I was not put on a pre-op diet. I guess it's because my BMI is low (30-31)? ooops, I thought I was responding to other comments. Excuse the multiple post...
