Lap Band on 10/05/12

"D-Day" for me is Tuesday.  I cannot believe my surgery is less than 2 weeks away.  Many emotions goning on.  Mainly, nerves.  I have a great friend who is 5 years out from her lap band surgery.  She lost 140 lbs.  Looks and feels great.   She is younger than I am, but I am glad I have her ear(s) to bend.   I know I am in for a major life change.  Ready, but nervous has heck. 

I am glad I have this web site to help me along my journey.  Congrats to all of you who have done so amazing.   Though suffering from information overload, within the last few days, I am trying to remember this whole process is a "one day at a time," ride. 

I look forward to having so many people to look to for support.

What is your pre-op diet like?

BAND REMOVED 9-4-12-fought insurance to get sleeve and won! Sleeved 1/22/13! Five years out and trying to get that last 15 pounds back off.

Congratulations:
I started my diet today.  It is hard this first day, but I know that in 2 weeks it will be well worth it.

It's great that you have a good support system, both here and in your banded friend.

No one enjoys the pre-op diet, but thankfully it's temporary!
