MustLooseIt

I am going in on June 26 for my band. :confused: I also have to go do some lab work for the hospital on the 19th. I have really been getting ready for this. But now that I have a date, I feel a little nervous :mad2: I will keep everyone up to date. I am just counting down the days. How offten do you take pictures of yourself? I plan on taking lots of pictures.

Thats a great motivation for me. Thanks for that. Great job :wink:

Hello, I am not going to mexico. I have family and friends that live in mexico. The main thing is to not be out walking around the streets and visting stores. Take some handsanitizer with you also. Use that everytime u touch doors and stuff. I wish you all the best. You might want to check into the flights also. I have heard they are thinking of not letting anyone fly into the US from Mexico. I am not sure if its true.

Thank you for the welcome. I find it such a great motivation to read and look at all of the before and after pictures. I am going to take my before pictures the day before my surgery. I had a real hard time not drinking my pop and it was even diet Dp. I am just on tea,water,skim milk. I am really reading everthing on this site, trying to soak it all in. I wanted to ask what goes on at a support group. I was thinking of going to one. But I already know so much about this lapband system and the way it works. Anyone have any Ideas? I am just waiting on my date. I know its going to be soon. Some of your pictures make me want to cry:crying:..Im so happy for you all.:thumbup:

:biggrin: I am approved for my lapband. I am so excited. I have been waiting for so long. I am going in June for my surgery. I wish I could give a date but I still am not sure. I have done everthing my doctor requested. My name is Kimberly and I am from Nebraska, I stopped drinking pop almost a month ago. I have also changed my eatting habits. Extra gum is my new bestfriend..lol. Cant wait to get to know more people here.

Yes God is so Good. I also just found out that I am 100% covered for this surgery. I am going in in June. I can't wait. I am also a little nervous. I am ready for a new start on my life!

:drool: Hello, thats so wonderful. I am going in for my surgery in June. I am so exicted yet very nervous. Your right about not waiting anymore. I feel the same way. I want to be alive for my children. My uncle died at 36 and my grandpa at 50. This is something I can not avoid any longer. I must do this. Hope to keep in touch with you.

:drool: Hello from Nebraska I am also going in for my banding in June. I am so excited for the help its going to give to me. I am also very nervous. I hope that we can both find support here. Have a nice day. Can't wait to get to know more people.
