Today is the DAY!!!

Alright people!!! In 15 minutes I am leaving this house and headed to the hospital.

I am so excited!!!

But, the bad news. I threw up this morning. Maybe it's my nerves... but I am scared that I'll have food too high up... I know, I'm probably over analyzing... but still...

I ate at around 11:30 last night *couldn't eat after midnight*, and I felt fine all night... even slept!!! BUT, this morning, I just bowed to the porcelain throne. NOT GOOD.

But, I am doing this anyway.

Wish me luck... I'm hoping to come home with a great tool to start my 'new' life.

Good Luck!!!!!!!!!!!!! I did it on 12/09/09

Hope this note finds you home and banded! Let us know how you're doing...feel better soon! -BG

Congratulations!!! Nice way to start the year!!!

Congrats JennyG1971 ...I hope your banding went well and if you are experiencing that shoulder pain dont get discouraged it will go away with plenty of walking --many suggest gas x but it didnt work for me...if it is an issue that you are experiencing try it out for yourself but dont let it get you down (((i say this because that was my biggest hang up and i thought i made the wrong decision but the pain left at about day 5 for me))) and its been smooth sailing since. No fill yet for me but still sticking to soft foods until my first fill...again congrats on your recent decision and new pilgrimage rather than journey!!!!

Good luck on your journey. As you go through the first few weeks, just tell yourself this is the worst of it. It gets easier each day and you will be one step closer to your new life. Happy New YEAR!!!
