I had my final appointment with the doctor today, to schedule the lap band surgery. We set the date for the 11th of May and to start the liquid diet tomorrow. Then the doctor tells me he has been scheduled for jury duty for the 10th and is hoping to get out of it on the 10th, but if he is unable to get out of the jury duty then I will have to stay on the liquid diet another week and we will reschedule for the next week. I kept the May 11th appointment, and now have my fingers crossed!! What would you have done? Would you have kept it or rescheduled for the 16th??

i have wanted this for sooo long (5 years) that i would probably reschedule it. it's only 5 days later. and i know i would be emotionally wrecked to have it cancelled and probably go on a binge eating! ('i'm a stress/emotional eater. ok i eat cuz the sun is shining. lol) no seriously i would reschedule and avoid the possible disappointment. just my 2 cents!

either way the liquid diet isnt that bad i lost 15 pounds in 2 weeks on that diet and 45 pounds in a month after surgery and its definately changing my life, i would taKe the chance and keep the 11th so u can get it done and join us on changing your life:) good luck to you
