Hello! Getting banded on 1/20/10!

I'm very excited! I've been on my liquid diet for four days, and have my surgery in no time, it seems!

I finished my 7 months of medical management on January 5th and was approved right away! SO glad.

I topped out at 197 and am 5'1" with sleep apnea. I am at 194 after these few days of liquid dieting. My doctor is going to perform SILS (single-incision lapband surgery) and I'm very happy about that!

I've also been running with the Couch-to-5K Program since November, and have registered for my first two 5K runs in March and April. Very excited! Running is my new addiction. :w00t:
