I just wanted to start a March group. My surgery date is March 2nd.

I do have a great husband even if he's lost more weight then myself! LOL! it's ok I understand men lose it faster! Wow your from Australia that's cool! I'm from Texas. I hope everything works out for you. I'm on a shake and lean meats and all the green veggies I want diet! I can have low fat yogurt and Skim milk and 1 cup of fruit I thought my pre op diet was gonna be straight liquids! I'm so glad it's not. I don't know if I could handle that. The 7th we will both be at the Dr that day. My band date is the 8th and the 7th is my pre op meeting with the dr.

wow... not long to go now... thats exciting for you. im excited with you. lol. i cant wait for next wednesday our time to come around.. then i will know what date for me. your pre op diet sounds great to me. iwouldnt mind that at all... it sounds like south beach??

Good luck my3kidz36!!

Hi all I am being banded on the 5th March in the afternoon. Nerves have hit big time. This weekend is shopping for pjs & liquids. Anyone else on the 5th?

MY SURGERY IS TOMORROW! IT'S FINALLY HERE! GOTTA BE THERE AT 5 AM!

STARTED MY CLEAR LIQUID DIET SATURDAY THE 25TH AND IT HASNT BEEN THAT BAD PLUS WE ARE EVEN HELPING OUR SON AND HIS FAMILY MOVE. I JUST STOP ONCE IN A WHILE TO SIP SOME GATORADE OR EAT A CUP OF JELLO. THE FIRST DAY WAS HARD. I HAVE DONE EVERYTHING MY DOC HAS TOLD ME TO DO. A LITTLE NERVOUS AND HOPING FOR A QUICK RECOVERY. WISH ME LUCK GUYS!!!

thats great news... im hoping that i will be in about that date as well.

Surgery date is March 16. Starting to have second doubts whether I shoul go through with it. Currently lost 44 pounds on my own and feel that I can stay on that path yet...I always regain it all back plus an extra 30-40. It's been my pattern for 20 years. I really hope that the band will help me keep the weight off for good.

like you, im having some second thoughts but i honestly thank that if your history has been thats its impossible to keep that weight off then go ahead and have the surgery. i havent even had the willpower or success to that extent. im sure with the band in you will just keep on keeping on.
