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

My date is march 8th!I'm excited but super nervous,my birthday is the 17th so this is a new beginning for all of us:)

March 7th for me! I've been through SO much to get approved and I'm still in shock that I'm getting it! I just found out yesterday and I called my best friend screaming.She is also getting lap band in a few months.Only a few days until my pre op diet begins. My mom is 6 months post op and is 60 lbs down! Wow hope I can do the same.

If having a "last meal" makes u a fatty, I'm a super duper fatty! Lol. I had a "last meal" WEEK! I got in all my favs....Italian, Mexican, Chinese, Popeyes Chicken, Taco Bell, and many more! The great part is, it's all outta my system. I start my pre-op diet today, which means my surgery is in 2 weeks. Yahooooo

Your awesome! I'm doing the same thing right now. My boyfriends gaining weight like crazy after my last meal week! But hey I'm only going to be a super duper fatty this one last time! might as well go out with a bang!

Got the best phone call of all today ... My surgery is approved and is offically scheduled for march 13th!!!. So exciting! starting my new life and finally introducing the new me !!!! I'm so excited but still very nervious about the actual surgery :x

everyone should come visit the March 2012 board!! Congrats to us!! YAY!! March 6th

I am March 27th. I can't wait. It has already been a long journey since I started, and now it is sooo close. It took a while to fight with my insurance and they required me to be on a 3 month program before I could apply. I am super happy it is almost here.

March 6th for me. I start pre=op diet this Tuesday! Go for my pre-op appointment this Wednesday. Fun, fun, fun!!

March 1 surgery date and started my pre - op diet on the 16th

4 Protein shakes a day not to bad so far.

It is a wonderful birthday present to myself on March 9.

I am also fortunate to have a wonderful support system at home ( my awesome wife)

I had my appt with the surgeon and the nutritionist and psych on Feb 13 approved Feb 16th the surgery is set for March 16th. Going to be starting the liquid diet part next week no solids just shakes but this is something i have to do. Good luck Everyone

Last Supper?? More like last supperS!!! I have had all of my favorites!! Lasagna is in the over right now and tomorrow my favorite Japanese steak house. Tuesday will hit me like a ton of bricks, but I am so ready. I know it will be tough, but I am ready to pay the price to get my life back!!!

I have one week until I start my pre op diet and am enjoying foods that I know I won't be able to eat for a while ... But the more I eat the more I know that I'm okay with giving them up and finallllly losing this awful weight for good ... New motto is we need to eat to live not live to eat !

I'll have to try the Hy-Vee shakes! I'm going to Denver primarily bcuz it's WAAAY cheaper, and I was 1 phone call away from Mexico. I've heard only good things abt Dr. Weaver, and his promotional price is $8450!
