Getting Banded on May 23rd

[mrnetop 0]

Hi! Been looking at the forums off and on and its time for an intro. I started this Journey around Feb 10th. So far leading up to surgery I lost about 30 pounds. I was doing about 1500 calories a day to get ready. Now I am on the more restricted modified liquid diet of I guess just under 1000 calories. My Dr. is Dr Burch from the Cedars Sinai weight loss clinic in Los Angeles. I am both excited and nervous about the upcoming surgery. I guess my biggest worry is missing eating like I used to, but I am also ready to make the change.

Semper Fi!

Keep up the good work on the pre-diet! I just had my surgery a few days ago on the 11th an am doing well. Your surgery will be here before you know it!

Thanks... The pre-diet is not so bad as long as I keep busy... Had a nice walk today, went to a book signing and met Betty White, spent the afternoon with friends. Posted a pic of me and Betty White on Facebook and got a nice complement on the weight loss so far.
