I am finally booked.

I have been investigating the Lap Band for over two years now but now I am finally booked. I have my band installed April 5th in Toronto at TLBC.

I am nervous yet confident that this will work.

I am glad I found this forum, I have read some great advice already. The recipes will really help.

Wish me luck.

Thanks

Dave

Congrats Dave! I'm sure you'll do great!!

Way to go Dave!!!!!! Toronto is an awesome town!

I started my pre-op diet today, I got on the scale and was surprised to see my weight. I am down like 13 lbs from 4 weeks ago. Of course I should explain that I have had a bug that has cut my appitite and has loosened things down below. So much for getting the flu shot!

I am experimenting with cutting and pasting the tracker I created below, excuse the duplication.

Thanks Dave

Hi Dave,

I too am being banded on April 5th. See you there.

Alex.

Alex and Dave as I said to Dave best wishes to you both and in my mind, you are both doing the right thing. When you post diet gets to you a bit, just think of all the good things to come.Doddie

I was banded at Toronto last Thursday. Everything went great and fast it was amazing. I felt so good when I got home just tired. Took pain meds first night thats all. Gas wasn't even that bad. You will both do great.

The pre-diet is a bit of a challenge , just get creative with the cottage cheese...it helps. I am now on full fluids and not feeling one bit of hunger. Just at night, My stomach is so loud it has bothered the Dog LOL

you will both do great.

Welcome to your new LIFE!!!

Hi Rosi, thanks for sharing your experience, it make me more confident that I have made the correct decision.

I am hoping to actually meet Alex on April 5th at TLBC. It would be nice to put a face with a name. Maybe we can then get together for coffee and share our deepest worries and concerns...

Na, to girly, maybe the occasional e-mail, lol!
