I finally met with surgeon. I have to go through 3 meetings with nutritionist one meeting with her to go over post op diet. My first meeting with her is next week. I get psych evaluate next week too. I am excited that I finally start my journey. I am learning a lot from what I read here. Thank you for all the great info

Congratulations Susan. It will be worth the wait. Just keep reading. I found this site a month after my surgery but have learned alot since. I did ok until then by calling my lap band md and talking to a friend who had the surgery. But the site has made me a lot more comfortable with my symptoms and such.

Take some measurements. The times when the scales don't move, measurements will give you someway to measure your progress, and those times will come.

I've been here reading a lot on here. A lot of what my Dr told me I have read on here, which made me feel good

best of luck to you

Good luck and keep us posted!
