July 12th here. Just had my last rib eye this evening and will be starting my diet tomorrow. I'm pretty stoked! :D

I'm also set for July 12th, but I don't have to start my diet until the 28. Curious to know what diet your going on.

My lap band surgery date is July 5. And I am so nervous, I pushed the date back from June 7 to this date. I don't really have the support I did when I was preparing for it. That's why I came on here.

I just pushed my surgery date back to July 30th! We had the opportunity to do it when my hubby was home so pushing it back is totally worth it :) Where are you having yours done?

It is hard to get beyond those being negative, I just had to concentrate on me and the reasons I need to do this. There are alot of people that will think negative of you trying to better your life and you need to ignore, it is hard especially if its family. Try talking to someone who has had a surgery or find a support group meeting they will make you feel better. and just remember you are doing this for you.

I agree, people will always say negative things to make you feel bad and not let you get better life. Just to whatever your hart and mind tells you to do. I am doing it all for my self, to be healthier, confident and to look prettier.. Lets go we can do this.. :) :)

If I don't get banded by the end of June it will be early July! I'm excited, and scared! I envy those that get to do the 2 weeks Adkins diet, I have to do 2 weeks of ONLY protine shakes (3-5 a day). Anyone else have to do that? It seems so

Impossible! :)

I only have to do 24 hours of Clear Liquids pre-op, I wonder why hmmm

      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?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks
