OK - start my liquids tomorrow -and I am already craving stuff I can't have :cool2:.... I just have to remember that in 10 days - I am banded and it will be worth it... I keep weighing myself everyday and get more down every day - it is such a bummer... I feel like a failure to go to this extreme - but I also feel like I am taking back control of my life - how can I feel SO different with the same procedure??:crying:.. I am trying to stay positive, but what if I fail??????? What does that say about me???:biggrin:

Firstly good luck with it all, you will be fine. Weve all felt that way, i know i did, i kept saying am i making the right decision? What if im one of those people it doesnt work for as i dont have much will power? Its natual darl, liquids, i had the optifast and was surprised how well i tolerated it. I sometimes had steam vegies at night (cause you can) Im a daily weigher too, sad i know! LOL along the way, you will still get depressing moments but thats expected. So where and when you getting it done and by who? How exciting!!!!!

I'm waiting to hear from the dr to schedule my surgery and I KNOW I will have days like you are having. I am dreading those days, but I want this soooo bad. My husband is legally blind...and losing more each day...and I want him to see his hot thin wife before he loses all sight so I am using that as my inspiration. I am glad to have the boards to vent or to offer inspiration.....

Keep your head up...we're all here for eachother!!!!!!

I'm 2 years out, and all the agony I went thru pre-band, and the liquid diet afterwards, was so worth it. Hang in there.

Sorry to hear about hubby, but thats so nice that you want to do this for him aswell. You will get there and the results are amazing, losing the weight on the optifast before your op will inspire you even more.
