I am 23 days and counting, Good luck and can't wait to share the journey with you!!!

I'm due to have my lap band surgery on October 18th - 7 days from today! So you think you are nervous??? I'm so afraid of pain...

I had the gastric sleeeve. I recall counting the days down too. I was a nervous wreck. Talking to other people who had the surgery was not an option to me at the time. I did talk to Dr. Feitz A LOT about my concerns. That helped a great deal. If you have any concerns don't be afraid to call your doctor.

Remember to walk after the surgery. This well help you a great deal. Whether you are having the lap band or gastric sleeve this helps get all the air out. Don't skip drinking your protein drinks as well. As this will give you the nourishment you need to keep your body going.

Let us know how you are doing and I wish you the best of luck!
