lol thats funny that you say you're counting down the days till you can chew again. My older sister also had the lap band done last month and she said that's the hardest part for her so far. She justs wants to taste normal food. I never had my teeth pulled and I've heard from many people getting the wisdom teeth are very painful. So I'm gonna take your word . Other than still being on the mushy foods what else is hard for you? I know I'm really going to have trouble not drinking while I eat. That is really bad habit for me. lol

Hey there! So I have a couple questions...when did you have the lap band done, how much total did you lose and when you started gaining it back did you have any complications such as slippage or erosion? BTW your pics look great! They give me hope!

Thank you!! I'm soo scared out of my mind lol. I know that the benefit will be great but its the whole surgery thing that is making me nervous. Have you had your first fill yet?

I'm excited and very very scared now lol I called up to my doc like what's the hold up and they were like well we'll schedule it now...then i was like oh.... ok... lol. Now that I know thats its really happening i'm like crap am i really ready for this? u know? I think i'm just more nervous of the actual surgery.

oh I didn't realize ur surgery was on monday!! Good luck and I will pray for you!!!

I found out my surgery date!! its February 16 and the countdown begins!!

I found out my surgery date February 16!! and so the count down begins!!!

So I found out my surgery date Feb. 16!! And so the countdown begins!!!

U look amazing!!! Congratulations you're an inspiration to all!

Thank you! So far TX isn't too bad. The weather is kinda annoying but the drivers are even worse. I grew up in germany most of my life so when it comes to driving I drive the Germany way meaning I honor the right of way and when it comes to merging we do a zipper like affect; the car on the left goes then the one on the right. Here I've seen two cars try to merge on one road at the same time and naturally it caused an accident and then because everyone wants to look instead of paying attention another accident happened right after. Other than that, I like it.

Anyway, I've been bugging my doctor's office everyday trying to find out the status of my surgery date. Basically some lady still has to put everything together. I don't know why its taking her so long . Well I gotta get back to work talk to you soon!

How far are you from me? I'm still kinda new around here. We just moved here from NC back late August. That would be nice to make some new friends and thank you for the friend request

Hi so when did you get banded? I'm still waiting on my surgery date.. i swear they're taking forever lol. You look great! How much weight have u lost so far?

Well my insurance didn't require none of that. All I had to do was attend the seminar, the nutrition evaluation and the psych. evaluation. I'm done with all of that. So just still waiting on my doctor. I'll be honest, I'm not looking forward to the liquid diet part. My older sister had her lap band surgery on December 8th and she said that she's not hungry but she just wants certain tastes in her mouth. The broth gets really old lol.

Just dropping by to say hey :-) I'm still waiting on my surgery date. I wish they would hurry lol. I hope you have a great day!

So are you anxious/excited/nervous about your surgery? I can't wait to have my date but I know as soon as I get it I'm gonna have butterflies lol. Are you on the liquid diet yet?

Nope I still don't know :-(. I wish they would hurry already. I think I may call them on my lunch if they don't call me first. They wait is killing me lol. I just want to hurry up and get the liquid part over lol.

Thank you soo much!

Yea thats the part i'm afraid of lol. And I've been approved already just waiting on my doctor. I'm guessing since its the holidays they're trying to get caught up. I wish they would hurry though lol.

Thank you!! So what's been the hardest part for you?
