Reshma

Hi All, I had my band put in yesterday. I am a little sore, a little tired, but I am walking around and feeling good. The thing that hurts the most is hiccupping and coughing. Oh well. I have noticed that warm chicken broth and ice chips in between have been the best. I am also sipping gatorade. Any other suggestions for the next couple of days? Good luck to all that are going in this week.

The only preop test I know of is the Upper GI that I am doing that morning. I have 2 appts with the dr. after that. I will post what those will entail. I am so excited!!!:Dancing_sorry:

Hi All, I have a Dec. 12th date. I am VERY excited and VERY nervous at the same time! My biggest fear is how I am going to be able to get into the grove of changing my eating habits. Any help on how y'all are coping?

Hi All, I am feeling the same mixed emotions. I am so excited about my lap band surgery day (12-12-08) and very scared! I have always hidden behind my weight and used it as a crutch. It is scary to think I will not have that anymore. I know that I am doing this for the right reasons and that I will be able to live my life to the fullest, but it is still scary.
