Okay, so I thought DH was on board with the LB surgery. I guess I was wrong! :confused: He is not worried about the cost, so he says. He does not like the idea of going to Mexico for the surgery. And, now he says that I really don't need it-- that a could lose 20-30 lbs. this year and 30-40 lbs. next year. He has known me since I was 13 years old and knows that I have lost weight before and have never been able to keep it off. I am 37 years old and if I continue to be obese or go up and down with my weight, it will affect my health and I am already seeing signs of it -- high blood pressure, joint aches and high cholesterol!

He doesn't understand my struggle because he has been thin his whole life and he comes from a thin family. :tired He did say that he is not totally against it. I really do want his support on this!

Onto my pre-band drinking/eating.:hungry: Today I am going to drink water 30 mins. before eating and take tiny bites and chew, chew, chew to practice for my band life. I did have a fiber drink this morning but I forgot to drink it S L O W L Y.:rolleyes oops! I am also going to have only 1 diet coke today and slowly wean off of it. I would like to be completely off of it the week before surgery.

As for exercise. :eek: I am going to try to get on my treadmill for 30 mins. today also.
