Guess what, guess what, guess what?!!
I GOT MY DATE!!!!! MAY 13th!!! WooHoo!!
I went to see Dr. Jones at Park Nicollet for the first time --- very nice -- short --- but very nice. lol.
I was the only LapBander out of the group of four, but that's OK! The doc told me that I am a great candidate for the band because I am young BUT out of college and have a regular schedule (aka no dorm binges, parties, etc).
There is potential that they could move up my date, but for now -- the 13th it is!!!
I told him about my idea to do Weigh****chers and the band together and he said that it was a VERY excellent idea.
SO, I have exactly a month to get into shape and into the groove. Today I joined Weigh****chers again, bought a new TANITA scale (thanks ladies) that works amazingly, and bought a Gazelle off of Craigslist for $50. Now all I need is a heart rate monitor and I am set.
THANKS FOR READING!!

I'm not perfect but I am going to die trying!!!
CONGRATULATIONS!!! How exciting. Dr. Jones is a very good surgeon but I guess I'm a bit partial also.
WW is a great idea and another idea is Sparkpeople.com You can plug in your food intake and it adds up your calories and protein for you. I use it every day and it really keeps me accountable!
Congrats again!
