All I can say, good luck. I will send a little prayer for you. If it is any consolation, you probably couldn't enjoy the food anyway, with the stress you are under.

I love reading your post! I can't help but laugh at the way you put things. Any way I am sending out prayers to you to be able to make it through this weekend undetected.

I have been dying laughing about the picture on the bottom!!!! I've been WONDERING how it is going!!! I know exactly about how it is having skinny In-Laws!!! And I can JUST hear what mine would say about having surgery. My MIL is hyperthyroid---so she orders appetizers to dessert everytime we go anywhere and always comments about her own "fatness"....she is MAYBE scraping 125. I'm telling you! Being queasy from the Swine Flu is your best excuse right now!! DON'T tell anyone! Stay strong!! :wink:)

Your post is so cute and you have a wonderful sense of humour...DON'T LOSE THAT!

I was banded yesterday, but lost 12 pounds in 11 days on the protein shakes preop. You are doing great.

A little sore today, but not so bad after the gas left within 24 hours. When is your banding date?

lol!! u always make me laugh...and the pics u post too r too funny! Best of luck to u! Hang in there!

Hey - 30 pounds is GREAT!!!!! Congratulations. Don't worry what other people are thinking or not thinking. You're doing this for you kiddo. They will notice soon enough.

Wow, 30 lbs already. You're doing great. If you're not even supposed to have protien shakes right now, what are you supposed to eat during your liquid phase.

Good luck getting through the weekend undetected. I've told everyone about my band so I don't know what it's like trying to hide it. I do however know that if my mother asks me one more time if my pants feel any loser yet, I'm going to scream. She literally asks me every day. It may not be hell, but it's annoying as hell. Keep up the good work.
