I am very excited to finally be getting wls, nearly 14 yrs ago I started the journey & the time has finally come after all the trials, THANK YOU LORD!!! I put it in his hands & this is it.

Don't know if it's the right thing to do or not, but I'm doing it.  I don't have that much to loose, but food is just not my friend.  Gained 20 lbs in 1 year when I quit keeping my carbs below 20 a day!  I had lost 44 lbs 5 yrs ago on Atkins, then in 2008 I quit counting my carbs and gained all those pounds back in 2 years!  I will be using Dr. Miguel Zapata at Santa Engracia in Monterrey.

Hi there I have my surgery scheduled on Feb 22 and I havent lost a pound.  In fact Im pretty sure I've gained a couple.  I am worried like you that the surgeon will delay my surgery.  Its actually bugged me that my surgeon in the beginning of this journey said the requirement was a 10% weight loss but he hasnt said nothing about that since.  I'm going to start a protein diet starting Sunday.  Im hopeing I could lose some weight. 

Good luck to you.  Looking forward to hear about your progress.

last time i had the band I hated the pre op diet i know this time wont be diffent, guys the sergery is easy just walk alot when u get up, Keep me updated

That's also my date! I'm excited and scared at the same time. I haven't heard about the shakes yet, but my pre-op appointment is this Friday, so maybe they'll fill me in on that.
