I'm not familiar with those two but I'm definitely open to the idea!! Something that would give us instant communication with each other, almost like our own group me. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

If you will be sleeved on Monday, October 10, 2016, let's find a way to form a group and share our journey. Any ideas? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Hi guys, I'm entering into my final week before I am sleeved on Monday, October 10. I am very excited and wanted to see if any of you had any recommendations of things I should get prior to surgery? I feel prepared for all of the liquid prep, but maybe there are some non-food things that will make life easier for this journey. I have seen some discuss buying the little 4oz cups from Wal-Mart, some have mentioned purchasing baby sippy cups to ensure you don't swallow too much at one time. If any of you have any ideas, please share them with me. I look forward to hearing from everyone! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

You should try quest protein bars! Many great flavors, all packed with lots of protein and fiber!

Jim, good for you! Life with the band is not about restricting what we eat, but more of how much we eat! I can honestly say I enjoyed my share of desserts and goodies during the holiday!

Congrats on your progress! We are well on our way to healthier and more energetic lives!

Thanks! I'm really excited!

This is definitely an exciting time!

I'm glad things tuned around for you! How much have you lost?

Hello bandsters, I wanted to write and express how pleased I am 2 months post-op with getting the band! I am 24 lbs down, and for the first time in a long time can I start the new year with a weight loss promise I can keep! Now that all of the holiday treats are out of the house, I can now refocus on reaching my 60lbs mark by March! Are there any fitness challenges going on now? If so please share, I'd love to participate!

Absolutely! I just left it on the blog!
