Hey everyone,

I'm getting the lap band on November 20th with Dr. Huacuz.....

Any advice?

I'm currently 503' and weigh 234lbs, I've tried diets and exercise but I need some help controlling and limiting my intake.:hungry:

Congratulations on your upcoming surgery! I am also in Texas (Dallas). I am 4 months out, and feeling so much healthier than before. My hypertension is gone, and I am down 40 lbs so far.

Let me know how I can be supportive.:clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2:
