Hey,

Not long till you're banded! How exciting! You'll do great. Don't worry about the foreign object... it isn't going to hurt you I cant wait for my operation and I'm not even approved or have a date yet! haha

How's the pre-op going? I know it sounds hard, but what I think is that the pre-op and post-op diet only last 6 weeks of your life and help prolong your life by who knows how long 10, 20, 30 years? Yeah, from reading other's stories it looks like the weight just drops off you as long as you stick to it. Tasmania is GORGEOUS. I went there for a holiday just over 4 years ago and what amazed me was everywhere I visited the scenery was beautiful. The road set-up in Hobart though was crazy! So many one way streets and if you missed your turn off you have to do a round trip of about 4 blocks to get where you wanted to be! Ayers rock is meant to be awesome, you should really try and get there.

Hope the pre-op is going well and look forward to hearing your progress
