Hi Michelle I'm over in Coeur d'Alene, welcome! Who is your doctor? I had my surgery on Feb. 19th with Dr. Bright from Rockwood Clinic. I am down 32 lbs now. This has been a wonderful experience. Claudia

Hello Michelle. Welcome to the site, it is very helpful to newbies, I learned alot here. I am down 140 pounds and I have never regretted a moment of doing G B. Good luck with the surgery and we will see you on the losers bench!

Welcome to the boards Michelle..... and good luck on your new journey!

Hi Michelle, Welcome. I am only 2 weeks out from lapband surgery and I heard myself when I read your post. I was so excited I couldn't contain myself. I am on the liquid diet for 6 weeks now and sometimes it's a little tough just cause you want food. But I don't regret it at all and it's only temporary. I hope you get your surgery date soon and can get your chance to really have fun with life again. Keep all of us posted. Debbie
