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...

Justa waitin' only have 3 days to go before surgery. I'm having all kinds of feelings. No doubts or fears really just hopes that everything goes okay and that i never have a slip or erosion. I would like to keep my band (gertrude) forever. I am looking forward to the trip to san diego then mexico. Never have been out west at all. Never have flown on a large jet before. I'm sitting in seat 13A on the flights from home to chicago! THat's my lucky number... The large jets don't have a 13th seat... well i don't have alot to say. Started liquids this am doing okay with that i'v e had Unjury chicken noodle soup, sf jello, and unjury unflavored in water and crystal light to drink. Haven't cheated. haven't had the urge to yet. My husband is grilling chicken wings right now,(don't like them) he had mercy on me and fixed something i don't really like. I'm a vegetarian about 90% of the time. Plan on being a full-time vegetarian now that i'm being banded. I'll write more on the trip to let you know how Mexico/San Diego goes...Thanks for reading my jumbled thoughts...

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...
