Don't you do it!! You are too close to wreck it now!! You can celebrate Valentine's Day with a nice dinner out next year...... that's what I'm telling myself too! There's no way he can't cancel that dinner..... people miss their reservations all the time and the restaurants can't do anything. Plus he can call them and say that you guys can't make it.  You can still do the hotel..... maybe you can challenge him to make you forget all about the food....LOL 

 im with steph... skip the dinner an go spend the weekend in the hotel.. an take ur mind of things..sounds way better then food anyday! plus good excercise hehe hugs.. u can do this.. dont let it discourage u.. an just think how great u will look in a new dress next valentines day.... 

Making the decision to have the band placed was a difficult one for me.   I had to make sure I was willing to change my relationship with food.  At first I kept thinking, "what about Thanksgiving, Christmas, The Superbowl,  Easter, Christmas Eve??"  All of these events have forever been associated with food for me and my family.   I looked at these 5 days and compared to the 360 in a year it was a no-brainer.   I am 44 and my only regret is why didn't I do this sooner.   How long do you have to stay on the liquid stage?   I know every Dr. is different.   My Doc has me on liquids for one week.  It is difficult, but it is only one week.   You will make it through this small hurdle.   Did your husband make the reservations before your surgery date?  I will keep you in my prayers.   As much as I know my relationship has to change I still haven't opened a magazine...all those food ads will make me crazy...lol    Kimberly
