  1. My little one just threw up all over me and has a fever.... is that a sign?
  2. Tomorrow is my surgery day! I am ready to just say lets forget the hole thing. I am so scared! I am mostly scared for my family. I laid in my bed with my oldest son last night and just looked and him and started balling! I want to watch him grow up.Then i think there is a better chance that i wont if i don't have surgery. Yesterday my om told me, " you know you still back out". Kinda made things worse. I want to hear "your going to fine". Encouraging words. Why is that so hard. My husband told me a few days ago that he was proud of me! I was happy to know that he being supportive. I know he is just as scared as i am. I think he knew how i was feeling last night and he just kinda stood away from me. How do i not think about this all day. I have so much to day today!:mad:

  5. So to day i started my Clear liquid diet. Its only 11 and i cheated already! I ate some of my 2 year old sons breakfast left overs. I did so well on my pre op shake diet. I lost 8 lbs. Whats wrong with me? This clear liquids thing should be a piece of cake!:eek: Well thanks for listening to my lap band confession. Surgery is in two days and i am starting to get really nervous. I know it sound dramatic but i don't want to die on the table! :mad:

    Its been a week since i started my pro op diet and boy do i feel better!. I have lost 6lbs! I don't feel like a slug anymore. I don't feel tired all the time:tongue:. The food you chose to eat really does make a difference on how you feel. I have been kinda nervous since my surgery is next week but today has been a little different. Today i have not been nervous, i am excited about it. :thumbup:

    What a draining day yesterday! I had my pre op appointment. My appointment was at 1 but of coarse the dr didnt get to me till like 2:30. IN that time i met so many people in the waiting room. Frist there was girls that had had lap band and didnt lose anything! the both said they were not happy with the chose they made. So that made me question if i was doing the right thing. Then two more ladies came in both with lap bands an said they had no probles eating anything. Well come to find out the first two girls had been banded by a diffrent doctor and we not even sure if it was done right. That made me feel a little better. Every single person i met yesterday that was banded my dr all said they can eat almost anything and had very little pain. Like i said i was there for almost two hours, I met another lady who had had the bypass (not from my dr) and was telling me how much trouble she had with it. All the same thing that happen to my cousin ( my cousin died from the bypass). Turns out the had the same Doctor and she knew my cousin. They had had surgery the same day and kept in touch till he died! Small world huh. She told me how MY dr had saved he life and how DR Dr. Terry Sanderfer has killed or nearly killed so many people. :tt1: I dont understand how he is till allowed to practice.

  20. I have so many questions? My biggest fear is that i am going to miss food. (thats crazy i know) Did any one have that same fear? What is it like to want pizza for dinner and not be able to have it? what does it feel like to get full so fast and still have food on your plate that you want to eat? I have so many more but these are the big ones for today!?!:thumbup:

    :thumbup:Congrats!
  23. So my surgery is two weeks fro today:ohmy::thumbup:! That means PRE OP DIET!!! I hate the protine shakes. I picked the ones i thought i would like and bought big containers of them! Bad idea! I should have got samples and tired them all first! I spent way to much money to not use them so i guess i will be gaging every shake for the next two weeks! Wish me luck!
