Hi Teri,

You and I are one day apart from our entry to Bandlandia. I am scheduled for Tuesday. I hope your surgery is quick and painless. Be sure and check in when you are feeling up to it. I know I will be looking to hear from you since we are so close in our surgery dates.

I think I am going through the "last supper" syndrome. I have been trying hard not to get carried away, but it is difficult. I don't think I have the frame of mind that I won't be able to eat certain foods after being banded, but I am dreading the clear liquid stage which starts on Monday for me.

Keep in touch.:confused:

Good luck...I'm sure you will love Dr. Boutt. Also, all of the nurses there are extremely nice. One suggestion....as soon as you wake up, Walk, walk, walk and then walk some more. Walk as much as you can around that circle. The nurses will encourage you to walk. They are right about how much faster you will heal. It will help get all the gas out and you will be in MUCH less pain. You won't feel like walking, but it will be so worth it!!!!!

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?
