I get banded on Tuesday and I am really looking forward to it! I have been on a 3 week liquid diet and surprisingly it hasn't been too bad, and I have lost about 25 pounds. But I am not gonna lie, I'm really looking forward to chewing my food again.

Good luck - you're well on your way! Tuesday is the first day of the rest of your life!

Good luck for Tuesday. I was banded 17 1/2 weeks ago and have not regretted it for a moment. I'm sure you will feel the same..

Yippee! So happy for you.......I love, love, love my band and this new chapter in my life. I feel so much better and my self-esteem has increased. Life is good. There is something very powerful about choosing ourselves and our healthy futures. Showing up in our lives! Here's to it. Good luck with all and don't forget to walk, walk, and then walk some more. You'll be glad you did. Oh, and way to go on the 25 down. I loved it that for the first time the weight I lost on pre-op was weight I'd never ever see again (unlike every diet I had ever been on, and those were plenty). Best wishes to you.
