Being released form this band

I'm happy and nervous all at the same time. I'm finally getting rid of this band and I have been approved for sleeve I'm scheduled for surgery 4/4/13. Started my liquid diet today and I'm just trying to absorb and read as much as I can. I can't fail at this and be obese and unhappy. I'm setting my game plan and preparing myself. Any suggestions for me?

    Good for you! You will love your sleeve and it's so different from the band. You will be able to eat healthy foods again and feel healthy too! Congrats!

    It's nice being sleeved and not throwing up like I did with the band. And I only had mine 7 months. You will be much happier with the sleeve. Best Wishes to you!
