Lap Band Surgery Date

[FrancoPitt 0]

Well. my insurance has approved my surgery and I spoke to the surgery scheduler and my surgery is scheduled for September 1, 2011. I have been working really hard these pas 7 weeks diet and exercising and I have to say it is paying off. I started out at 297 and I am down to 268 and I have been taking spinning 3 days a week, yoga once a week and really controlling my diet. I will have to do the liquid diet the week prior to my surgery so I have been having two days a week drinking my Protein Shakes so that I will know what it is like not to have solid foods for a while. A little nervous, but also excited. I am hoping that with all of the success that I have had in the past 7 weeks will continue until my surgery date as well as after so that I can use the band strictly as a tool and not have to go through the filling stage of being banned. Look forward to the journey with my fellow banders.
