Lap-band op on Monday!!!

[gingercat 1]

Hi All

So excited :grouphug: :frown3:

I had my consultation early feb and was weighed etc & due to work

committments could not have surgery until mon 28/04/08.

I must confess & after consultation went 'food crazy' saw it as 'last

chance saloon' & ate lots of rubbish (there confession over!)

So was really worried when went back for pre-op tests would weigh

more than I did in feb...but I have managed to pull myself back & been

on low-fat pre-op diet for 3 weeks & now weigh 5 kg less than in Feb. :biggrin2:

I consider monday as my new birthday & can't wait to stop my life

time of obesity...

Just thought I would share my thoughts & joy & is it normal to be

this excited?

Congratulations, Gingercat! I am still pre-op, so can't say if your excitement is natural from personal experience, but I would think it is. I hope I feel the same when it's my turn!

Good luck and post as soon as you feel up to it!

You know there is power in words... and when u said that "You will consider monday as your new birthday" A light bulb went off and I am there right with u. Turning points in your life are always marked with a date. Who says you can't have 2-birthday's.. ahhh I love it... and congrats...:thumbup::grouphug:
