Hello....  looks like the 28th is going to be a good day!  The FIRST day of the rest of our lives!!!  Best of luck to you :-) 

Hello, I'm new to the message board, but I notice that we are having our surgery on the same day. I'm having the lap band surgery done in Ocala, FL. I hope everything goes well for you and good look to your new life.

Hello!  Congratulations on your surgery date!  I am from Oklahoma, but having my lap band done in Sherman TX.  Best of luck to you as well.....  Let me know how you are doing!

I am scheduled for October 29th and have not been told to go on a liquid diet.  I have Dr. Davidson in Dallas, TX.  I go on the 22nd for Stress test and see doctor.  He wanted me to lose 20 lbs before surgery but I have only lost 7 so far.  What do I need to do?  Will he cancel my surgery? 

I am going to a doctor in Sherman TX.  He just told me Monday that my liguid diet was only one week prior to surgery and I can have a small meal everyday that consists of protein and veggies.  He said this was to help shrink my liver so their would be less risk during surgery .  I really don't know the answer to your question about your dr.'s weight loss goal for you.  Surely not, though - if we were able to do this weight loss devil on our own we wouldn't reaching out for help.  I certainly hope that will be the case for you.  Best of luck to you on your surgery and keep in touch!

Great i am having my surgery on 10-28-08 also its good 2 here someone else on the same day. wow how cool is that.

Best of the luck to you!!!   Only 11 more days!  Keep in touch and let me know how it is going.....  I love your username: therestillhope!  Amen!
