hi mairlyn, i to am going to start the liquid shakes as soon as i find out what you can use wether it is powder or liquid or slim fast and how many. gotta try some thing that will pull weight off in 6 days that is when my final weigh in is. i have been praying and i kno god will see me thru as i kno he has not brought me this far to see me fail. i started back on track sat. went back to the gym and really pushin it. gonna get my surgery on the 15th going to give it my all that is for sure. good luck to all and im praying for all dec.3rd banders

hi all :wink2:, how is everyone doing? me good just finished my pre-opt tests and then today i got my medical clerance. so we are movin right along. last step to do is final weigh in on the 8th of this month. so how has everone else been handleing these last few wks. i have been having a bite of a hard time but, not giving up. tell me what everyone's pre-opt diet is. my dr does the south beach. i have to lose 10lbs in the next week so help. i hear that the liquid diet would do that but, not sure what and how that works. well i kno all will work out fine as im trying to get to the finish line. maybe we can help each other. we have 11 days and a wake up. im so excited still. when does everyone go for there final weigh in? :smile2:

hi pete, thanks for joining i see alot of people viewed the post but, no one joined. i thought it would be fun to support each other while we are losing weight. but, being you did join lets help each other thru this. i think i will shoot for 12lbs. what is my plan to get there. i will stop eating after 9pm and try walk more. well good luck.

hi all, went for my pre-opt testing today wasn't that bad. go for the final weigh in on the 8th. tell me something how much has everyone lost on sb the first wk only if any. and linda i dont plan on buying much. thanks all.

hey linda & bloom, im gonna ask for it for sure. also can ya tell me what is the list of things you need 4 da surgery or maybe that is afterwards. got the vit. gas x, pill crusher. what else is needed.

hi all just wanted to say hi and let everyone know i go in the morning for my pre-opt testing. i feel nervse still the closer it gets. im at the count down 14 days and a wake up. dont know what they do at the pre-opt can anyone tell me how there's was.

hi this is my date to just in buffalo, ny. and for billoh yes it is hard knowing the a-bar is right there but, im doing it. hi bigurl x. well i started my liquid pre-opt today, as my dr doesn't require it he does south beach but, im a little tired of sb so trying some thing new. see everyone the the finish line and best of luck to all.

hi just wanted to day we have the same date, maybe we can chat some times. good luck and to all the other december soon to be banders.

hi kerry, thanks for the kind words it feels good to kno that there is others going thru the same thing or at least understand what im feeling. i have lost 34lbs but, 3 of that was before i started the program and the other 31 is out of the 39 program said i have to lose. i have come so close i can almost taste it. starting liquid diet today. so we will c what happens. my dr didn't require liquid diet he does south beach. but, im gone try the liquid one and see how it works.

thank you so much for that i really needed that. i have brushed my shoulders off and moved on as there is nothing i can do as its already done. so i have to move forward and get back on the horse and keep it moving. its good to have others going through it too. i to want to wear the skinny jeans, but, most of all i want to be around for me and my family. i want the band for me. a better life. im working on getting the mind frame of eating to live rather than living to eat as this is how i got fat. so thank you for not letting me drop the ball. on my way back to the gym for an hr. went earlier for 2hrs and i felt so good when i left that im going back for more. i feel so good since i go to the gym now. before i use to always feel tired. now i have way more energy. does anybody else workout. and has anyone tried the southbeach workout tape?

hi all, im kind of having a bad day, yesterday i did enjoy thanksgiving and didn't overeat or any thing. said i was gonna be done with it and get back on track today yet, i eat a cup of dressing and 2 bites of one slice of ham. i felt so low that i went the the gym and worked out for 2hrs. now im here and saying to my self if i cant stick to a diet now, how am i gone do it later. just wondering if anyone else has fallen of the band wagon since they started the journey for the band. i go for my surgery on 12-15-08. and i still need to loose 8lbs. yet, i go for my final weigh in on 12-08 and i feel so scared. feel like im loosing it. could really use some great words right now anyone have any coments.
