Well, I'm in the final countdown. I can't believe how fast the past month has went, when I first was told that my date was over a month away, I thought, wow, I have to wait forever!  but not!!  It has flew.  I sure hope these next few days do.   Tuesday at the gym, they're going to take my measurments and calculate body fat, so they will be more professional than mine.  I am getting my son to do before pics of me tomorrow.  My Mother told me tonight she didn't have a clue to how the lapband procedure goes, and she doesn't want to know, for she'll just worry, lol.  She asked me what I wanted for my final meal, and I told her, "Mom, I've had 43 years of "last meals", If I skip this last big one, I doubt I'll miss it."  I'm going to try to teach her how to post here so when I come thru surgery she can let you guys know.  IF she remembers, lol  Have a GREAT week everyone, it's a big week for the loosers bench, Lets Rock It!!!!!!!!!!

WooooHoooo! You go girl! Sending you lots of goodvibes and well wishes hon. You'll do just fine I'm sure and we'll all be around to hear all about how wonderfully everything went.  One thing I've noticed here is that many member referr to their surgery date as their Re-Birthday.  Happy Re-Birthday!!! (a little early yeah)

Oh I hear you, girl!  I ate my own "last supper" a few hours ago and it is sitting in my gut like lead!  LOL!  Not a big deal, just a grilled pork chop and some broccoli, but it was definitely too late for such a heavy meal!  Tomorrow will be all clear liquids then it's off to the hospital at 8 am Tuesday for my hot date with a surgeon! Wishing you all the best, dear.  I'll clear a nice path for you. Love, Suzanne

OMG, Nancy! It's here already! Oh, how I envy all you "losers" heading for the bench without me. I DO have an open reservation though. Hold a seat for me, lady. You'll be on my mind.    Clappy  Mare
