Well fabybie, jgandg and Happy2Bme in just a few short hours we will joining the rest of the family of Aug. bandsters. :speechles I'm so excited my heart is ready to jump out of my chest. Faybie thank u for doing that project, it lets us all know who and how big our Aug. banding family (friends) really is. I'll be thinking of all three of u while i'm having my I.V. inserted. I think that will be the hardest part along with the hour and a half ride home from the hospital. Best of luck to u guys. And a HUGE THANKS:clap2: to ALL the Aug. Bandsters. Every one of U R an inspiration to me:angel: Hope to log on tomorrow nite to see how everyone's doing. Take care, LISA

Thanks for the welcome everyone:o . Faybie I'll be thinking of you when I crack open my first Optifast in the morning:yuck: . Try not to even think about surgry day I just put it out of my mind and if I do think about it I just tell myself it's not that big of a deal. I have so much work to do ( because of no lifting for a few weeks ) that next Wed. will be here very quickly. I'm not a drug addict but I hope the doc has good pain medication because I have a very low pain tolorance. Most bandsters don't have major pain do they? Well any way It can't be as bad as having a baby:cool: You gals are my inspiration:clap2: LISA

Hi everyone, I'll be joining you as an August Bandster on the 30th. I start a week of pre-op diet of Opti-fast on Wed the 23rd. Why do some people have two weeks and others only one week of the pre-surgery diet?:mad: I know I'll do ok , but NOT looking forward to it.:mad: My name is Lisa. I see there is another Lisa here as well. I have been reading the forum for a few weeks and so glad it's here. Some things I didn't know about, like having gas, I dont't like the sounds of that. Does gas-x work? I have diabetes and use insulin along with other medication. If any one out there has had similar health issues I would like to hear from you. Well here goes my first post hope it goes ok. You are my inspiration!!!!
