im a jersey girl too!!! south jersey...how about you?

Central! ;) But I was born and raised in Philly and lived in Pennsauken for a short time.

OMG I'm doing the exact same thing and I'm scared, starting tomorrow it's diet time. From Jan till today i've gained 15lbs. But it's kinda unfair cuz when I went and got weighed at the beginning by the surgeon i had just gotten over a stomach virus and strep so i hadn't eaten any food in days. Even that morning i hadn't eaten. So it's time to get serious. I'm afraid they're going to push my procedure back since I haven't lost like i should. Also.. i've been frustrated because these "specialists" i have to see before the surgery are giving me the run around but that's neither here nor there. lol Good luck everyone.

yes, i too seem to be eating everything in sight. i will probably gain 20 pounds before the liquid diet. mine starts on wednesday.

i had 2 weeks of "last meals" before my surgery!

Watch out guys. My surgeon said no surgery if I wasn't wihmthin five pounds of the weight I was at my initial consult. A weight gain before surgery is not a good indicator to a doctor that you are ready. That being said, I wouldnt go nuts with food but if you feel like you need to have a "last meal" kind of thing.... Do it once for pizza, once for whatever. Just don't continually say goodbye from now until your surgery! Best wishes!

My surgeon made me lose 5% tbw BEFORE surgery! So I didn't want to NOT Qualify! I dieted like crazy to lose that 5%!

I did this. Once I knew it was coming up I made sure I hit up a couple of my favorite restaurants to get a few last meals in. The night before my liquid diet I had a big meal of pasta. Good luck with everything everyone!

I'm not proud of it, but I definitely ate like I was never going to eat again before I got my band. Thank goodness for the pre op diet!
