4 week countdown!

Hi All,

Well, I'm on the 4 week countdown til my Surgery, it is on Feb 4th. Typing this, my belly just did a somersault; I'm nervous, scared, excited. I have about 85 pounds to lose. I have lost weight and gained weight etc, the roller coaster.

Any one else getting banded on the 4th???

Im just waiting for my doc to call me with my surgery date and the OK to start my low-fat diet. Here in Quebec, we have line-ups in our hospitals and not enough doctors so we always have to wait and wait and wait...im SO ready, If only they would just call me now...
