Hey guys, I'm not feeling good right now. I have my decision appt. tomorrow and I'm kinda weary about going because I havent loss that much weight since my initial appt. I think it's like a couple of pounds. The positive side is that I hvent gained! I dont know how he will veiw this, I'm determine but it has been so hard to get this weight off. I have started to use the guidelines that were given to me by my nut. So I have prayed and know that God heard me and will answer. I'm going to over come my issue with weight and PCOS!!!!

I wouldn't worry too much.  I hadn't lost a whole lot at my decision visit either, as I recall.  They will want you to lose more between now and your surgery date, but I'm betting that you'll be put on a liquid diet that will take care of that.  Just be sure to follow their suggestions for the next few weeks/months prior to surgery.  It's important to shrink that liver before surgery, the liquid diet or other weight loss measures are mainly for that purpose.

Take care.

As you said -- you didn't gain!  That's pretty awesome.  A lot of people (:::coughcoughcough:: ... like perhaps me! ...  ::coughcoughcough::) go a little crazy and gain weight when they're making that big decision. 

Sounds like you have the motivation and knowledge to do what's best for you.  Good luck, good luck, good luck at your appointment!!

I definitely had "last meal syndrome" before surgery! Good luck at your appointment. I think you will be fine.

Got a lap band in 2008. Tried hard, but didn't lose much weight & developed swallowing problems. Fought my insurance company for almost a year & finally had a band to DS revision on 5/11/12. Have now lost 125 pounds. Yay!
