I am happy my LapBand surgery date seems like it's almost here though it is a couple of months away. I went to my consultation on Feb.19th 2012 I believe, but one thing for sure is my surgery date of May 30th 2012. I went to my first nutrition class yesterday 2/23/12 and thought the session was great. Like everything in life this process has obsticles. My problem is JUICE ... whew i said it. I love juice but now I will be drinking only 2 cups a day that are the size of my fist to slowly ween muself. I will be drinking crystal light. I'm fine with whey shakes due to drinking them already. I lay here in my bed thinking about my life before and how i think its gonna be after. I must say, I am excited and not nervous at all. I don't wanna be know as the fat one out of my sisters lol. Anyways I have a psych consult monday and my endoscopy thursday. I hope the process of getting to the surgery day is a smooth transition. My surgeon is great and very informative. This juice thing is complicated but for my health I am ready and willing to kick the habit. I feel like i'm on the journey to a wonderful life change.
