Going to have surgery with Dr. Almanza today. Met a bunch of nice women at the airport and now we are in the van headed for our surgeries! I dont feel alone. So far everything is going smooth. Will keep you updated.

Stick with it Gina! Look at all the people who did it before you!

Thank you so much for the words of encouragement! I am sure I will have so many emotions because I have lived like this for 34 years. It will be great to work through the emotions and have the life I have always wanted. I am so grateful for this opportunity.

Pre Op Diet And Three Days Until Surgery!
Arizonakimc replied to Arizonakimc's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
Yes. They said because my BMI is under 40 I should only do three days. It is so funny. Today i realize how much i use food for my emotional well being. I feel so weird not eating! -
I am scheduled for surgery on august 18th. Started the pre op diet today. So far so good! I am so excited to almost be there!

So i wanted to get your opinion. I am planning on returning to work on monday after saturday surgery. I just sit all day so it is not intense. Based on your amount of pain, do you think I will be okay? I have a high pain tolerance I think. I had my wisdom teeth pulled without pain meds. Thanks for helping! Keep us updated on your progress.

Fernandina- so great to hear you are doing good! I am going saturday. Most worried about the pre surgery diet. Work is going to be so much fun without eating. Ha ha. Keep updating us and I will do the same.
