Congratulations, and try not to worry to much. Also if you do a liquid a week before or for a week period you will lose that last 8 lbs. something to think about. Good Luck!

WOOO HOOO for you too!!!! You will be a loser very soon. And relax about the 8 pounds. Just do a liquid diet before surgery and it will be gone before you know it!!!!

Good luck and keep us posted....

WOOOOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOOOO! CONGRATULATIONS! Just think, you'll be a loser in less than one month! WOW! From what I understand if you have to do a liquid diet before hand, that eight pounds will be gone before you know it. I did an Atkins type diet before hand for 6 weeks and lost 24.5 lbs. and it also got me ready to be eating protein first, etc. I don't think you have anything to worry about!
