4 Days until my band!!!

I'm getting so excited! I'm not nervous one bit, which is a great feeling.

Luckily, I went through having my gallbladder removed in March, so I had the first ever surgery of my life with something like that rather than the band. That was almost like a "test run" of what a surgery experience is like. LOL

I'm doing pretty well with the liquid diet. It isn't bothering me too badly yet. It is a bit boring, and last night I made some potato soup and came across a few chunks that didn't get blended out too well, but I chewed the heck out of them and I'm sure that'll be OK.

Liquid diets seem so unhealthy!! Salty liquids or artificially sweetened liquids is all there really is. I'm going to try "cucumber juice" today though! LOL Maybe that will make me feel more healthy!

Congratulations on your upcoming Band!!!  I wish sometimes that I were back at the beginning of my WLS instead of 8 years out.  Still, I'm happy with the results so I can't complain.

Let us know how you're doing.

Just a few more days and then you'll be on the loser's bench with us!  Hang in there--it will all be worth it!

Hi Mary,

I am so excited for you.  Two more days!!!  I will be thinking of you and wishing you the very best.  Please keep us updated with your progress.  I still have a ways to go to my big day which will be sometime the middle of January 2011 if everything goes well.  The days are counting down!

Best wishes for you!

Kim

YEAH!   The countdown is almost over!    I know you are soooooo excited!
LIquid diets are tough but you can do it!    That weight loss will be worth all the sacrifices.
