good luck 67jax! I'm ready! Getting ready to head to the airport then to chicago, then to San Diego tonight!!! Surgery in the morining in Tijuana Mx.

I want to zipline so bad! i"m going to one of these days. It looks like so much fun. Congratulations on your victories!

good luck to all of you tomorrow. I'm the next day...can't wait!

You're welcome, you've got us to lean on, and we've got you for the same...

Surgery 28th may go back to work sept 5th if able. I can be off 4 extra days depending on how i'm feeling at the time...work on a recovery unit. We have good cna staffing so i can have help lifting, moving med cart etc...

welcome! glad you have you on here!

people that don't understand the lapband will have negative things to say. 9/10 people i told about it first responded with a negative remark about something they heard that had happened. bad news spreads faster than good news, you don't hear about all the people who've been helped by the band. If you want support from them, don't count on it... I told too many people and heard alot of BS...

i know! people bash what they don't understand i think....It just gives us all the more need to prove them all wrong!

Good luck binab, mrslogan0612, BeeBlueheron, dwilliams, Kdubb

28AUG- 67jax, pjenkins1970, & wheldonmommy on Monday and Tuesday. I'm a little early but i try to wish EVERYONE good luck before surgery on here. I'lll be busy flying and having surgery of my own mon & tues! Take care and keep in touch...

I''m not a breakfast eater so this is all good news for me! thanks for the posts...

i tried to say above that make sure your cough med is an expectorant not a suppressant... hit the return key....

I hope they don't postpone your surgery, it was hard enough to wait this long. I think i'd die if they postponed mine. well, now for some encouragement i think if it's just a dry cough you'll be alright. Make sure the cough medi! You want to get anything that's in there out... good luck my surgery is the 28th in Tijuana as well. I leave out monday...

click on groups, then click on august 2012 group and the click on Follow Group to join... Hope you all are feeling okay, i noticed neither one of you slept last night. You need to rest when possible, (if possible) lol.... Take care!

I have 3 days left, it's finally almost here! I start liquids in the m orning...

start my pre-op liquids in the morning! Surgery tuesday!!

good idea, whenever i need some encouragement i get on Youtube and look at lapband before and after videos. There's some really inspiring videos (with music and all),on there. Very inspirational for me...

everything togain, and spark: Neither one of you can sleep can you? I'd be the same way. My surgery is aug 28th (tuesday) I'll be the same way i know... You'll be alright...

Michele1975, EverythingToGain, LiveStrong41, krazykristy1998, yeya, Khpiglet, andrealeigh2116, & tiny62: good luck tomorrow with your surgeries!!!

I don't like mixed drinks or beer, i live bourbon straight, and i don't like to sip it. I don't drink often but i wonder if i'll be able to drink a shot of bourbon after being banded. anyone know?

Seems like the Jello shots would be the best way to drink alcohol. I'll try to have some on hand next party we have...

Good luck! I'm august 28th can't wait. But this last month has flown by for me believe it or not... I start pre-op diet saturday...

glad you're feeling alittle better! Hang in there. I go for surgery aug 28th!! Start pre-op diet the 25th...

Wow, you really are an inspiration... Congratulations to you!

yes! forgive yourself and start anew, you'll do awesome!!!

thanks for the tips, having surgery aug 28th...
