Tap Tap....is This Thing On?

Does anyone else feel like you are talking to yourself? I'm new here and getting lots of good information, but I sometimes feel like I'm talking to myself when post stuff...it could just be me but I figure I would ask.

I have been taking vitamins for a while so that's good and 2 weeks prior to even having to do the liquid diet I cut out all sugar and bad carbs so I pretty much did the detox then when I cut out the sugar. I am on just the protein shakes and I'm getting used to it. It just seems so much healthier to follow a plan that some others have been recommended by their doctors which includes a lean (real) protein in the evening, such as chicken or fish instead of all of that artificial stuff found in the protein drinks, but either way, I will definitely be following my surgeon's guidelines- I don't want to screw anything up!

Hi -- I am from Binghamton' date=' NY (upstate) and you are being heard! I am a newby too -- just decided to pursue band surgery last week -- waiting to hear about my consultation as we speak.

I started down this road about two years ago but decided surgery was not for me -- that I could do this by myself -- well, I couldn't. I decided I am ready for this journey and ready to make the commitment needed to be successful. Keep tapping -- people are listening![/quote']

I'm not a newbie, just recently started posting again. Banded 12/22/10.

As for not being heaard....you'll notice a lot more activity on the post op threads. Good luck to all of you' date=' banded life is WONDERFUL!![/quote']

It sure is & glad I did it. Banded 12/22/10
