Congratulations Blondebander!! that is great progress!!

Did your doctor put you on a pre-op diet? If so, how much did you lose pre-op and post-op?

I am scheduled for May 1st and I am excited to "get this party started"!!!

YOu are smart to do this at a young age. You will learn new eating habits that you will carry with you for a long time. If you start a family, you will be a great role model for your children!!

All the best to you!!!
