I was on Optifast and I would suggest not skipping any. They are already very low in calories and you don't want your body to think you're starving it. But, I'm no expert!

Hello to All,

I have just gotten approved...April18th.

I will be having surgery in Las Vegas under Dr. Umbach.

I am looking forward so much to getting in my old clothes.

I was a size 6 until 2008....I have since gained and and up 80 pounds since I was 125.

I had always been overweight, then at 40 yrs old, I decided to make a lifestyle change. I lost 130 pounds and kept it off for 12 years. Just had blinders on and once I had lost the first 15 pounds I was off to the races...this time...I need help....I feel the lap band is my "tool".

hope to be able to follow along with others banded in April

Marlene

I'm in southern Cali too. I used to live in Anaheim, but moved to Menifee. If you start a support group I'd be willing to travel Back down to the OC :) I did not like the meetings I had attended.
