I'm on day 4 of the diet' date=' and it has def gotten better. Last night I found myself near tears and irritable, to the point where I could even talk to my boyfriend because he had eaten pizza and I could smell it.[/quote']

I am convinced day 3 is the worst. I had a meltdown that day too, but now feel a bit more stable. Lol. Hang in there girl!

Michelel39, Jennifer La Russo, Sabrinas and Will Win I wanted to write to each one of you but I have to get thing together for tomorrow for my surgery. But I want to let you all know that I'm thinking and praying that your surgery is a breeze for you. Good luck! Talk to you when we are all banded!

I see alot of new names that have joined our may group. I'm sorry if you are having a problem joining the May Blooming Bandstes. My surgery is set for tomorrow, so if you have any problems please don't think that I'm ignoring you. As soon as i'm feeling up to it I will get caught up with every ones surgery date and make sure all that wants to be add to the group gets a invite if you can't join your self.

Thanks for your patience.

Glad the liquid diet is going well for you guys so far!

Michele, I am really excited for you!! One day away from a fresh start.

People on the liquid diet - is anyone else having constipation? I'm sorry if that's TMI.

Daisy I had a terrible problem with constipation I was told to take a laxative.

My Prayers are going out for all having surgery tomorrow. Be Blessed

Daisy I had a terrible problem with constipation I was told to take a laxative.

Hmm. I am gonna call the nurse tomorrow and see if it's ok for me to take too. I wish you all the best with your surgery tomorrow.

My thoughts and prayers are with everyone else having surgery tomorrow too.. This is the beginning of a new you!! Look forward to joining you soon.

Godspeed...it will be for the better and in 5 months from now ...we all will be looking at what looking at healthy means......

Today I start my 7 day of living hell 1000 calorie diet... I'm dreading carb n sugar withdrawal! My plan is to take lots of sleeping pills this week so I'm not in my way or others way! Surgery is next Wednesday at 1345, WTF.... I have to wait u til mid day! Torture! And this doc makes u stay over night.. This doubly sucks! Hospitals are for sick people, I'm not sick I'm fat! I'm angry that I got this big again that I failed again! I'm angry that I have to redefine my relationship with food! I'm 39 no kids in a LTR we eat out a lot I go out with my girls a lot how do I be social? I loce wine, enjoy all elements of wine culture, hw do maintain that? fYI not an alcoholic I go weeks without wine but but I occasionly enjoy a robust glass of red! Grrrr so many things going through my mind can't sleep my anxiety is at 10+ can't wait til next Thursday when I'm home recovering so I can go back to work on Monday. Do you think it's ok to refuse morphine and other pain meds. I found out that I will leave the ER with morphine drip, but what I hear all of u say the pain is not that bad! I hatebeing180lbs! Can't wait to get my life back!

Hi Ryan! That is so exciting. It feels good to be close after waiting so long.[/quote']

Thank you yes two years sucked. I orignally enrolled back in 2010 then got laid off, the teamsters said I would have to pay cobra. Then at my new job I started the process over once again and had to wait 7 months this time but now I'm green lighted for surgery thank god.
