Had to share...

I'm normally a "lurker" when it comes to dicussion posts, but nothing could stop me from posting today....


I got my surgery date!

My LapBand will be placed ... April 21, 2011!!!!

Yaaay me!

Good luck....you won't regret it. I had mine last Oct & although the first week was a bit of a shock, I haven't looked back since & I've lost 35lb

All the best
Jill

Good Luck!!! I had my lapband Nov 10, 2010 and I've lost almost 40 pounds!!! I love my band!!! Remember, Its a tool and it will work if you use it correctly!!! I'd do it all over again in a heartbeat!!! Joyce

That's awesome! I can't wait to join the losers bench! Congrats to you!

Conratulations!  7 1/2 weeks until you begin your new life! 

We're here if you have any questions!

7 1/2 weeks seems so far away right now, but I know time is going to fly and I'll be prepping to go into surgery!... I've learned so much from OH already, I feel like I've done this already! LoL!

HURRAY!  Mine was May 4, 2010, best thing I ever did. Lose all the weight you can now, it makes the surgery so much easier. Also, get to walking! I could only go for 5-10 minutes every 2-3 days before mine but it helped and after my stamina jumped very rapidly. You won't be able to do other exercises for several weeks anyway so get the good habits going.
Congrats, Sue

Thanks for this advice... I work at a hospital so I've been taking the stairs... parking on the 6th floor of the parking garage instead of the 1st or the 2nd.. and I'm trying to keep moving as much as possible!

Woo-hoo! Congratulations! Don't let nobody turn you around; I'm 11 days post op, 11.2 pounds down (as of yesterday).

Thanks! Congrats to you too! We're both starting a new journey!
