So I have cheated three different times now, and I feel just awful. I am terrified that my liver is not going to be shrunk enough for surgery and that I am going to wake up without my band :cursing: Did anyone else cheat, and still have the surgery?

I am there. thanks!!!!

I have PCOS and after a 110lbs lost I started in on seeing an RE as my age was flying by me. Anyway I did have help with clomid and then injections, with one M/C under my belt I am now in my 5th week of pregnancy still early I know but we saw 2 sacs in there, you may need help with having PCOS but it's possible. I am weighing in at 287 right now and prolly gaining becasue I am so humngry I am resorting to some slider foods so I need to get an unfill I think so I don't dlip my band or something...GOOD LUCK to you. Are you a member on Soul Cysters?

No I am not on soul cysters. how do I find it? thanks so much for replying, it really helps keep my spirits up! I am on my 2 week all liquid diet, and its hard, but I know I can do it, with motivation! (getting pregnant):thumbup:

Thanks for all the support guys! Today is not near as bad as yesterday was, so I am just taking it one day at a time!

Hey all! I started my two week liquid diet today, and I am already miserable. I know it is the best thing for me, but I do not know how I am going to get through two weeks of this without cheating! The shakes they have me on are DISGUSTING and I have never been fond of anything sugar free, so this is a big challenge for me. Any ideas on how to get through the next 2 weeks? :biggrin:

Congratulations on your pregnancy! That is SO EXCITING!!!!! That gives me so much hope that I can get pregnant after I lose my weight. You will have to keep me updated as your pregnancy progresses, and let me know when you have that baby! Once again, congrats!:thumbdown:

Hello all. I am due to be banded march 22, 2010. I am nervous, but also very excited. My husband and I have been trying to conceive for 3 years now. I have pcos and have not been able to conceive. I was just wondering if anyone has pcos, and if they have gotten pregnant after banding, how long it took, and how much weight they had to lose before they got pregnant. Currently I weigh 310 lbs and I am 5'8

Congrats on recently being banded! If you would, please keep me updated on your progress and any problems you run in to. Id like to learn all that I can before I have my surgery.

Hi Fern,

My surgery date is March 22nd and I can't wait!!!! I am finding it harder to control myself closer to the surgery date. I am having my surgery done in Mexico because I am self pay so there isn't as much doctor patient interaction before hand. I have gained a few pounds in the last few weeks because I have been eating so much. Feel like I will never be able to eat normal again....which I know isn't true. I have three more weeks until my pre-op diet. I have started to taper down a bit.

I find that I am really excited and scared and nervous. But I know that I am making the right choice. I cannot wait until the pounds start creeping down! Does anyone else feel like this is the start of a new life. I seem to be putting things off until after the surgery. Like getting my hair highlighted for example. It is like I feel like there isn't a point right now. I actually feel more ashamed about my weight now than I ever did before and sort of like I cannot do anything until after the surgery. I know this is not a healthy mindset. Does anyone else feel like this?

My surgery date is also march 22! I have gained weight as well. I keep eating everything, thinking I wont be able to much longer. Not a healthy mindset, I am sure. I feel ashamed about how much I have gained. I know I need this surgery, but at times I feel like I am not strong enough to follow through. Hopefully we can all be each others support system!:thumbup:

Thanks Ayme :thumbup: I am a big carb eater. (Love my breads). I am hoping that the cravings will disappear after awhile.

I have a surgery date on March 22, 2010 to be banded. I am starting to become very nervous, although I was not nervous when I started this process. Is this normal? Does anyone have any tips to get me through the days until surgery? I start my liquid diet march 8, not looking forward to it either. Thanks for any advice, it will be appreciated!
