Molly I was weak during my pre-op diet. I let temptation get the better of me. Im not perfect, but according to my self evaluation, I did very well pre-op in comparison to how I was eating before. I am example of a sinner saved by grace.

Good luck everyone joining the losers bench this week!

Good luck to everyone. My surgery date is October 16th. I go in for pre op tomorrow. I'm excited and nervous I've been struggling with my weight for over 20 years now. So glad to have found some like minded ppl to network with.

Lynn did you see dr tanner more than once before surgery?? I've only seen him once and the only appt I have left is the preop class next week.

I did but I also have a band. I went in 2 weeks ago and had my fluid pulled out. I can't believe tomorrow is the big day. EXCITED AND NERVOUS

Whoot Whoot!! Just called the hospital for tomorrow's surgery schedule. I am first case!! Have to be at hospital at 5:45am. Jeepers, you think I was going to Hawaii

:) Aloha everyone! Think good thoughts for me! Lisa

Im having mine on oct 28. Im 5 feet 228#s. Cant wait to stand up without having to adjust my pants over my belly :-)

Dee you are the only other 28th that I have seen. Counting down. When do you start your pre-op diet? I saw nutritionist yesterday. Start on Monday. Excited for the home stretch of waiting. Been very emotional. My poor boyfriend deserves a medal for putting up with me.
