Anyone? Am I The Only One In April?

[GirlieGirl723 2]

Hi guys, getting banded April 5th so excited and nervous.. I have been reading so much info and making sure I'm ready for this lifetime commitment. Can't wait, how long has everyone taken off of work for?? Hope I will be okay, have a very active 3 year old son.

April 26th for me and I'm in need for some support too!! Very excited to start on this journey!! my goal is 180 lbs sounds a little scary at this point, and i cant ever remember being thin so i cant even begin to imagine it.

I'm April 18! I'm bursting with excitement but nervous and hoping I can be successful at this. Nice to meet you all!

Anybody in the St Louis MO area?

And it seems a lot of us are hairdressers or nurses. Next we will all be having bladder suspensions since we have to hold it all day too!

Hi chunkygirl my Dr has me on a Protein veggie diet not liquids until after surgery.

[ashleysuzanne 1]

luck you. I'm not looking forward to this at all =(

You will get through it! It'll probably help with the adjustment afterwards as well.

I have a date tonight. Nothing too exciting, someone I've seen before. Almost a year ago and things between us just faded away. I'm looking forward to catching up but really don't expect much more than that.

Funny thing is you never know. I dated a lady a couple of time 6 years ago and it just faded. I ended up meeting someone else and getting married. Wife took off, I got divorced and ended up meeting up with the old friend and we are now going on 5 months together. You just never know.

I am another April person. Just got my date and I will be banded Monday April 16th.

My doctor tld me I had to lose 30 - 50 pounds before he would operate on me and so far I have lost 66 but it seems like it is getting harder. My goal is 82 (want to be down to 400) before surgery and since I have to go on the liquid diet 2 weeks before I think I may make it.

I will jump over and check out the other group.
