No, I didnt go to the Buffet simply because 1. I've been too sick to leave the house and 2. no money. Not because I don't want still want. I have the last mealitis. I keep thinking of all the meals I need to eat before I can't ever eat them again. Its awful. I can't blame it on on a Husband either. I dont have one. Its all me. My Family is actually jumped on the get healthy band wagon, and are disappointed in me every time I mention eating anything unhealthy. Especially my 15 year old who needs to lose about 30- 40 lbs herself. I've got to get more motivated and keep her motivated. Good for you that you have gotten so much done. My Consult is Thursday, I'm not sure I shouldn't post pone it until after I see the G.I. Doctor since I am having so many G.I. problems. I'm so sick of being sick!

Im doing good, Ive been in and out of the Hospital this week because of my heart. Looking forward to my consult with my Lapband Surgeon next week! How are you doing?

I am trying to follow a High Protein, low carb, low sugar eating plan. I am journaling all my food at www.SparkPeople.com and trying to keep my calories between 1500-2000 a day. I have cut sodas out of life completely. That has made a major difference. I drank Diet Sodas, too. I can just tell the difference in how I feel. Im having some Last meal mentality, there are few things that I really want before I get my Band. Ive been wanting to go to a Seafood Buffet since I moved to Georgia Now I really want to go there. I think I am going to have to do that one, or It may be my downfall later on with my band. Do you have any poisons?

Are you doing an PreOp Diet? Im trying to but its so hard to stay motivated.

Congrats on your Surgery Date Abby! I wish my insurance was so fast with an approval. Good luck on this Journey ahead!

I will Praying for you on the 12th, come in the chat when you get home and let us know how things went! Lets kick fats ass!

My Food Voice wants to go to the SeaFood Buffett and get my Fix. I know that's not healthy, and not going to get me anywhere but its what my food voice keeps whispering to me. The healthy girl in me, says" HELL NO We Wont Go!". I will let you know who wins! I wish I could just get banded and this wouldnt be such a struggle. Do you have a Date set yet?

How are you today Electra?

Hi, Delta! Im home from the hospital. Everything is okay, they didnt find out why I was having chest pain but they did get my Stress test out of the way. It was clean. YEAAAA! I hope you are having a great day, Delta! TTYS!

2 Fly, I was wondering how do I make goals to achieve if I dont focus on numbers? I'm not focusing on Final number that I'm not worried about, right now I just have a goal of 310 to get a pedicure, 299 to go on a roadtrip with my kids....How can I Recognize Ive lost weight without the scale?

Sorry it took me so long to reply Lynn. I was in the Hospital all weekend with Heart Problems. Everything's okay, and a good thing came out it. My stress test is done for the Lapband.

You seeing yourself is exactly why I posted the pics. I knew there are others like me, and I want to be able to inspire them to get a Lapband, too. This a Life Choice not a Easy Choice. My Consult with my Surgeon is next Thursday now. I'm so excited I can't stand it. Have you had a Consult yet?

Thanks for the friend's request, TDN! You are looking Awesome. Keep posting picture they are a lot of inspiration to pre Banders like me!
