Tomorrow May 7th is the day! Who is with me?

I wouldn't say I'm scared but just anxious to get started on this next chapter. I have lost 16 pounds on the pre-op diet which almost broke me, but I got through it and I'm ready! If I can do that I know I can make my band work for me for the rest of my life. Also I set a goal of a 5k on 8/17. I may have to walk it but I will be in it!

I did we'll with preop but I have only lost 7 pounds in the month since I got my band. Feeling frustrated. I had a fill 2 weeks ago but today was one of the worst days for cravings. Q

7 pounds is still goods, it's 7 pounds u haven't put on , I can't believe how mentally hard it is with the band , it's defenlty a challenge , how did u go with the fill ? Did u find u couldn't eat much again ?

No I think I need another fill. I now know I can not eat bread. Gets stuck every time I try. No pizza at all. Other than that I am still ok with the fill. I still think I'm eating too much.

Could u eat these things before u had a fill? Coz everything I tried I can tolerate but I haven't had any fills yet
