Welcome Bob and congratulations on your date! Im having my band done in about 9 more hours,,,,lol. My dr had me on a 30 or less low carb diet for a few weeks then all liquid for 3 days prior to surgery. I lost about 12 lbs in those 3 days.  Good luck on your surgery.  Jeff

Thanks everyone for the words of encouragement! I'm counting the days to surgery, getting nervous, and having second thoughts, etc. All these things I'm sure are common? Good luck to all of you and I look forward to getting to know you all. Bob
