  1. I never had any trouble getting down fluids either. Banded on October 11th. Karen
  2. I felt a cold coming on a week before having surgery and took some cold fx. It seemed to work to keep the cold away.
  3. Hi there, I had surgery on the 11th as well. Are you off of fluids now? I am not supposed to eat real food till next week. I haven't been feeling really hungry but my head wants me to have more than just a bowl of Soup at night. Karen
  4. Was supposed to go on Friday but when I was picked up at the airport the other girls in the van had to go to the clinic for preop..so they did mine at the same time and when a space became available they girls didnt was to be seperated so that worked for me as well. My sister who was coming with my got stuck and wasnt going to be able to come down afterall. I am feeling fine..other than the incisions it hard to believe anything is in there. I have been a bit nauxioius at times but I've barely eaten anything for a week and throw surgery onto it. I will write more later after I cruise around TJ for a bit Karen
  5. Hey Hope, I am having it done in Mexico. Like you patience is not my strong point. However, we are almost there. Its nice to have someone to encourage or vent on while we go through these stages. How's the preop going? Karen
  6. Hi Hope Nice to see someone else whos having surgery on the 12th. We just have to get through this preop diet now. Hard to believe its only 3 weeks away. Karen
  7. Hi Laurygregson, I am being banded on October 12 by Dr Ortiz. Guess we can struggle through the preop together. Hi to all the rest of you as well. Karen
