Just 12 more days for......
everyone of you September 1sters. How are you 9/1 folks feeling about all of this? Please share......I was keeping up with the list of whose date is who but in the meantime I hit a bad spot in the WLS process and I just didn't keep up with the board so I unfortunately gave up trying to keep up with it. It was a nice idea but I just didn't have the time and some personal problems wouldn't allow me the time to keep it up. I apologize. I tried and there have been just so many wonderful new members that I just couldn't do it....by the way WELCOME ALL OF THE NEWBIES AND CONGRATULTIONS ON YOUR DATES.....
I am looking forward to getting to know you all and keeping you all here in my prayers. This is an exciting time for us all as September is so quickly arriving. We are going to do just fantastic. Hang in there troops! CAN WE DO THIS? YES WE CAN! (Ooops back on the Bob the Builder kick again....LOL)

Getting GROUCHY....hope it is just nerves, since I am light years past PMS! Figured I would stuff myself in a last gasp chance to eat sugar-filled things............but guess who's appetite has gone South? for the first time in my LIFE!! Heck, I could probably lose weight like this...........but for how long???
Good luck everyone.....our time is coming....

Now, it's 11 days
I didn't know about this (date) part of the board until today. I'm from Minnesota and am having Lap Band surgery Sept. 1st. Can't wait but am still nervous. Since I'm in the "older" bracket for weight-loss surgery, I elected to try the adjustable band. PCP and surgeon concurred and my insurance okayed it. What kind of preop diet does your doc prescribe? Mine said eat healthy, 3 meals per day--no snacks or liquids that contain more than 5 calories per serving. It's a very good idea if I can lose some weight but it is not mandatory.

13 days!
I'm so nervous. 
I'm cleaning my apt. so it's ready for when I get home and trying to buy everything I need. I've never had surgery before. I tell myself it will be a piece of cake. (ha! Cake)
Dr Roslin, my surgeon, has me on Slim Fast 2x a day and a healthy meal for dinner since I saw him! That was in July! But since I got sick and my PCP had me on large doses of Prednisone, I gained 7 pounds! Now, I'm on a water diet (only water during the day and a small salad at night) for 5 days. Not easy, let me tell you. I'm trying to drop as much as I can before my surgery. I've already dropped 5 lbs in 3 days!
I don't know 
why Dr. Roslin has me on this diet. I think to see that I can stick to some kind of diet plan (if I could, I wouldn't be in the shape I'm in) and to try and lose a little prior to surgery, so that they can do it laproscopically.
All I know is that I would like 1 day to be able to eat whatever I want before I can't ever eat it again.
Congrats to all you Sept. babies!
