hello. i just signed up and my lapband surgery is a week from today.

i'm on the 10 day liquid diet now. today is day 3. i've been exercising a lot more; walking, swimming, gardening, moving around more in general.

i've been jumping thru hoops since february. i should have lost about 50 lbs just jumping thru all those hoops.

i'm hungry yet excited to get going!

:welcomeB:

I know the pain of the hoop dance, doing it now myself. :bananapowerslide:Sure is good to know there is an end in sight! Good luck.

Oh, how exciting for you!!! That's a long time to wait! Buckle your seatbelt! It's a wild ride (but a great one)!

i can't wait til a week from now. with this 10 day liquid diet

i always want to spell it weak. i have a weak left. LOL

Welcome to LBT! Congrats on the surgery date!

thanks! there is a ton of information here

and i need it!

Hi there!

I'm so glad you have your surgery date! I guess the good thing is that the liquid diet after surgery won't seem as bad after you've already been tortured! :faint:

Best of luck!

that is very true! i have read where some patients have felt like they

were done a disservice by their dr. for not having them on the liquid diet before surgery. i think it's a great way to get used to it... today is day #4 and i still feel a little bit hungry but i'm hanging in there.

i'm not so sensitive about others eating around me anymore either.

i'm going to totally appreciate it when i can have more than liquids! :hungry::ranger:
