Hello to everyone, this will be my first post but definately not my last. I have been lurking for the past 6 months waiting on meeting all of my qualifactions for the lap band. I was approved last week on Thursday(11/7) Started my liquid diet on Friday(11/8) talk about no time for the last supper :thumbup: I am scheduled to be banded on 11/21 and am just looking for some encouraging words from anyone. So far the diet is going great I have already lost 6 lbs but I wont say that I havent been hungry!

Hay you will be a day after me. I also kept thinking about Thanksgiving and missing all the goodies. And then I thought, you eat for about 20 minutes and then it is over, I can skip the meal and have the rest of my life to enjoy which one is more important? We are going to the Thanksgiving parade instead maybe a new family tradition.
