Hi everyone am so happy my surgery will be June 1st am a little nervous but very happy cause this will be a new beginning to my life!!

I will have mine done sometime in June too. Waiting to hear the actual date now. Looking forward to having this done and moving on with life.

I am scheduled to have lapband with plication on Jun 20. Don't know what preop diet I will need to follow-but have an appointment on June 9th.

Good job on the weight loss!!!

And so funny that you were traumatized!!! I would have too!!

I actually weighed myself FOR FUN today....what was I thinking?!?!?!?! Anyway, our school nurse has a scale so I went to her office and hopped on that darn thing....and it said a LOWER # than I was expecting!!! Woo hoo!!! I've lost 10 pounds since April!!!!! I had to check the scale 5 times to make sure I wasn't misreading it!!

Starting liquid diet next week.....not looking forward to that!!!

Keep up the good work on the weight loss and keep me posted!!!

hey guys, so i went to my preop appointment today and i have lost 6 pounds in 4 days! but i was tramatized me cause i was weighed by the most beautiful man in the universe..i wanted to dieeeeeeeeee. but o well, 9 more days!

me too June 9th Good luck to you

Waiting for my exact day to get banded next week i will know!!happy mode

June 21st here.

Got banded today. Not much pain...but it feels like my stomach is constantly taut and tight... uncomfortable...

I posted in the other June thread, but I'm getting banded on the 8th at 10:30 in the morning. I'm really looking forward to it. I've had my bout of nerves, but I'm excited now. I really feel like I'm turning a new page!!

June 8th for me~~~~~~ Hope you are doing well

Just got approval!! June 29th surgery date for me! YAY! This has been in the works for years, so I'm SUPER EXCITED for it to finally be reality! And scared also!

No pre-op diet for me. I just had to lose a percentage of my total weight (5% I think) to be ready for surgery. I think I'm there already but I will just keep eating well and get as low as I can before my date.

Best wishes to all of you!!!

June 13th for me!!

Hi Everybody,

My surgery is on June 17th. I am on say 3 of a 14 day liquid diet and i am going crazy. Not sure if im hungry or just force of habit to eat whenever i felt like it.

I feel your pain! I'm a week into my pre-op diet and it seems to be easier during the when I'm at work. The weekends seem to be my problem. Today was bad. I could have eaten anything i could find! I thought about gnawing my arm off but thought I might need it later . I would just drink more water or eat some cantaloupe and remember why I'm doing this.

Good Luck!

got my date!!! June 27th and I CAN'T WAIT!!! )

i had my band placed june 3rd, it wasn't bad, but i didn't have to do a pre op diet and now i wish i did, because i am starving, feels like i never had anything put on my stomach, i want to eat so badly, and i feel like i could, but i don't because i don't want to screw this up, anyone else have anything like this

Hi all! This is my first post here. I got banded June 2. Still not feeling so great and have a complete lack of appetite but I know it will start getting better soon!!!!

I only had a week preop diet but definitely think it helped!
