I'd love some support. I am trying to loose weight while I am waiting on my surgery and thought maybe someone would like to join me.
My surgery has been postponed twice now so I feel like I have been waiting forever. I bumped myself the first time I had a surgery date because I decided I should not be banded the same day as my husband. My husband was postponed due to some blood chemistry issues and then he wound up taking my second surgery date because we both felt it was more important for him to go first. He has more to loose and has other issues. He has been banded for a week and a half now and is finally doing better....he had a tough recovery. Now I am deciding on my date, want to make sure he's OK before I go!
So.....I started 10ish years ago at 310 pounds, my highest weight ever. Now I am 219. I'd like to be about 150 or 160 so have decided the lap band will get me to goal and most importantly keep me there.
Anyone want to commiserate with me on pre op pre diet stuff?? I am a pro at my doctors pre op liquid diet, having done it twice now and helping my husband go through it twice. What I'd like to do is be able to eat very small healthy portions now before I go back on the liquid diet before surgery.
