To be Banded 08/28/08 ... liquid diet is WAY challenging .... The upside ... have dropped 14 pounds in 7 days. Curious ... I'm not missing the food one might think. I'm truly missing the taste of my daily serving of Grape Tomatos and Cucumber slices. LOL! How Bout that for strange?

56 M Living in Las Vegas .... Surgery will be conducted in Baja ... The Trek began at an all time High of 313 pounds! Wow!! I need to lose half of me. That's an odd feeling. 299lb tonight ... perhaps, another pound will escape while I sleep?

Good Luck to ALL!

Congrats not long now!! I understand the hunger I go to bed every night with a growly belly!!! But I haven't diverged!!

Congrats to you! I see you'll be banded a day before me. The very best to you on the journey.

Congrats! It sounds like you're doing great, keep up the good work!

Good luck on your surgery!

After surgery, I did not feel like eating. Actually I am just now starting to get hunger pains!

Liquid diets are tough when you have no restriction. I wish you well on your journey.
