Good luck, surgery is not bad. Just remember to get up and start walking as soon as they will let you. Walking is the best thing to get rid of the gas they fill you up with.

congratulations!!
Stay calm, treat the next 2 weeks as a time of great anticipation, give yourself time to relax and do something you enjoy, also set aside a few minutes each day to feel..... sad, angry, afraid... and then go about your day.
But, most of all plan your future !

I am also being banded on the 17th and right now can only think day to day of getting thru the pre op diet. Just think a week or 2 of pure recovery is going to rush by after waiting a year and in 4-5 weeks, you should be back to normal and on your way to a new you. I know I will be freaking out this time next week, but if you are like me..........if I don't do this, I will probably die.

shanc625 got a reaction from YngGram in Much Appreciation
Just wanted to say that finding this forum has been a huge relief. Thank you all for sharing your experiences both pre and post op. being a preop in waiting has been exciting but also very anxiety inducing , especially having zero experince in the way of any prior surgeries or hospital stays. Being able to read everyone's stories usually puts my anxiety to rest when it starts to creep up. So thanks again!

Hi all, i finally just got approved for lapband surgery after 6 months of a required supervised weight loss program. Excited but also very nervous as this will be my first surgery as well as hospital stay. Looking forward to learning more about your experiences in the coming weeks
