well just got on the scale this morning. somehow i gained half a pound? what the #$%^&* how did this crap happen? I have to stop this stuff. I think i'm addicted to my scale now. Does anyone else miss being able to chew food? UGH!

i'll see ya there sweets! will be interesting to meet you all! damn, i might have to try to look good. not just a routine visit huh. lol

hey by the way, what is d/c'd

hey shar, hows it going? all went well for me too. my stomach swelled too much and they had to take 1cc of Fluid out b4 i could go home. omg, it was torture! then dr hoffman took it out, what a difference it made! let me tell you being too tight is awful! so far i've lost 20 lbs since mon:thumbup: and yea! perhaps i'll be @ the meeting is it weds?

hey, and by the way, i have already lost 14 lbs. i'm 6'1 278, or at least i was on monday. now i'm 264. dr hoffman is a GREAT guy! an amazing bedside manner. makes you feel like you really are important to him, i'd recommend him!

hey guys, was banded monday by dr hoffman. i have soooo many conflicting emotions as to what i did. am i happy with what i did? yes, i think. lol. there are sooo many things, water, i have a hard time drinking more than a little sip. does this go away? i cant even fathom eating at this time! it takes me an hour just to get down a little sugar free jello! i never realized just how much the world revolves around food. its always on tv, on the computer, in my fridge. it's like mourning the loss of your lover. food has always been there, good times and bad, for as long as i can remember. i think you have to re-evaluate your life, etc... when you get this. sooo many things i took for granted. i MISS my diet pepsi!!!!!!! help! thanks for letting me vent. does anyone else feel this way?

hello, my name is jason. i've spent quite a while reading all your blogs and appreciate the support you all give one another. i really dont know why i'm writing this. i guess i'm just very nervous and need to vent a bit. dr hoffman will be performing my surgery tommorow morning @ 11:30. for some reason i'm freaking out? :rolleyes2: is this normal?

well thank you for the info! i'm very excited about this, i have a bmi of 40 as well. i hope i dont have to do a supervised diet for 6 mos! i'd get too small to get the surgery! lol this actually worries me:sad:
