Hello - I am new to this site but I have been looking for somewhere to share my journey. My current weight, as of yesterday 04/08/2014, is 305. Started my liquid/protein fast today and so far doing well with little hunger. My lap-band surgery is scheduled for next Wednesday, 1-week away! I am both nervous and excited. My surgeon is Dr. Christopher Reilly and I met him for the first time on yesterday. There is so much information out there that I tend to lose track on some of it but I am trying to retain as much as possible to make this a success! I will post more details as I have them and would love any advice or feedback to make this easier. I have the support of my family (husband, kids and sisters) but would love to know more people who have or are going through what I am going through. Thanks for listening - all comments are welcome.
