  2. Hi Kathy, I head back to work tomorrow too! Even as I write this, my belly is making some angry noises. I just had an ounce of tea. I just try to ignore it now. I did have to return to the docs office on day 6 because I could not stop burping and belching, but after an un-fill, I was much better. Good luck tomorrow. Take care:)
  3. I start the pre-op diet tomorrow. 3 shakes and jello, popcicles, broth. how is everyone doing?
  4. Congrats on the surgeries, glad you are ok now. that is just so romantic!
  5. I am having surgery on Valentine's Day. I just wanted to wish you all the best of luck this month. If you are anything like me, you are in final count-down mode. I dont have to start pre-op diet until the 9th, but I was thinking of trying the 2 shakes and 1 meal just to wean down. Have to start somewhere... 12 more days:)
  6. Thanks for all the support and good luck to all of you too:)
  7. p.s.s. I worked at Jenny Craig for 2 years and only went from 233 to 216.
  8. Finally, someone with an opinion! thanks. I started this with a friend and she got her band back in august. she has since lost 40lbs and asks me every week how its coming for me. i dont know. if tomorrow goes well, i will be banded. if not, not sure
  9. I have been pre-op for 1 whole year, trying to lose 5% before they even let me meet with the surgeon. So Tomorrow is the appointment, and I did not get there. What do you think will happen? I am so nervous. There is not much I can do about it now, is there? p.s. I am reposting this in post op--hoping for a response, any response;)
  10. I am so sad that I got 49 views and not one response:(

  15. Hi Mousie- I started OA too. I even attend online meetings through therecoverygroup.org LOVE OA for helping sort out the destructive behaviors prior to surgery:) Best of luck on your journey

  19. if you are not ready, don't do it. If you think you will like being restricted in your eating, go for it. If you are only afraid of post op pain, they have meds for that. it is really your decision, no one can make it for you, but i wish you the best of luck no matter what you choose. Tammy
