Hi Orea
I'm getting my band 4th July! I'm counting down the days. It cant come quick enuf! I'll be honest, my eating has been dreadful this last week since I decided to go ahead with it, I think in the back of my mind I'm thinking 'make the most of it coz after 4th July thats it!' Not very sensible and I need to get a grip or I'll be a stone heavier by then. How are you coping with it all?

So far, since I heard on Monday, I've gone through:
  • stunned disbelief
  • nervous stomach -- hard to find something I really want to eat
  • I'm losing weight well on my own, do I really need to do this?
  • Ordered a pizza for dinner and demolished half of it. (In all fairness, after three days of really light eating, I was famished.)
  • Decided from the pizza episode that yes I do need the band! LOL
  • Comfortable feeling that this is the right path for me.
  • Wondering what I have to do next to get ready. I won't know until the 23rd.
Quite the roller coaster for one week.

Dr. Halmi said I dont need to do the pre-op diet since I am 100lbs over. But I have been trying to train my mind to eat less. I will be drinking the EAS Advant shakes 2 weeks prior to surgery to wean myself away from solid food.
