Congrats!! Sounds like you are motivated and ready to go!! Goodluck with the pre-op diet, it makes it a little easier sticking with it when it feels like "for real this time!" - with the lap band you know you won't gain it back overnight like we all have done in the past.. Anyway keep us informed on how everything goes!
