I have a date!

I am scheduled for Lap Band surgery at Saints Memorial on July 10. I have to lose 8 pounds by then, and I am a little nervous about that. Obviously I am nervous about the surgery as well. I have 2 small children and don't want anything to happen to me. Now that I have a date that is so close it seems real!

Hi Candice... I just wanted to say hello and wish you well... you can lose a significant weihgt fast doing the atkins diet since you will be having surgeryso soon it will not be a prolonged thing...just enough to get you what you need... I wish you the best...Hugs, Stef P.S. I see you live in Salem...you must know about Chatila's ....I dirve up thee often to get sugar free goodies...I wish they would start satellite locations in MA anyway...good stuff if you haven't tried it!!!

I live about 2 miles from Chatilas! I love their corn muffins!

Congrats on your date. Sending wishes for your successful weight loss before hand. April

Congrats on the date!!! I feel your concern, and I have a son myself, and I don't want anything to happen to me either, but just keep thinking of how much longer you will be around with the help of this surgery! That's what I'm doing!!! Good luck!!!
