    Good luck to both of you! I am now on soft and mushy-who knew mashed potatoes could inspire such overwhelming emotion! Janet

    My deepest, deepest prayers and thoughts go out to you and your family-no one should have to endure such pain. Janet

    Good luck! Don't let the fear of pre-op stop you from going thru with it-I had very little discomfort after surgery, and they actually fixed a hiatal hernia while they were in there! You are lucky to have each other to support you! GOOD LUCK and keep reading the forum, it will give you tons of support and direction! Janet

    How can this be? I was gone for 4 days on business and came back expecting to see a big drop on the scale-could flying have made me retain water, or is the stupid measly 500 calories a day of clear liquids too much!!! AARGH! OK, I feel better-anyone else experiencing this? Thanks! Janet

    Hey there fellow South Carolonian-Carolinian? Anyway-good for you fighting the emotional eating head game-I think we ALL have that issue, or a regular diet would have worked for us (This is the part that skinny judge-mentals don't get!) Hang is there, you are doing AWESOME! Janet

    Good for you! I was banded on the 16th. so i am right there with ya! Again, I am amazed at the different approach Drs take-you're on protein? I am on clear for 2 weeks, but yesterday the Dr told me I could have 1 watered down protein a day since I am STARVING! (mentally and physically?) Anyway-keep that positive attitude, and we will somehow get through these next few weeks before food! Keep the fluids coming, sips consistently! Good luck! Janet

    Thanks girls! Actually, I gave in and had a watered down Unjury protein drink-my Dr wants me on clear liquids for 2 weeks, then soft mushy-at least I can hold off on the solids, but I needed something more! I promise not to do more damage than liquids, though! Thanks! Janet

    Hey everyone, been reading you for awhile-thanks for the silent support! I was banded on Monday-and feel GREAT!!! Why did I wait so long? If you guys only knew how much I have been pulling strength from all of your responses-well, thanks! Janet Columbia, SC Banded: 6/16/08 Previous weight: 205 Pre-surgery 198 5'2"

    Man, it feels good in some warped way to know that I'm not alone. I am getting banded on Feb 6 and can't wait...I can eat till I am almost sick, and just can't wait to be able to eat again. Only other addicts understand, and if i hear one more thin girl tell me to just not eat so much I will pull her hair out! Chin up, I am right there with you! Janet

    Congrats girl, I am getting mine Feb 6...nervous or excited? I know I'm both Janet
