  1. Nice Job on the Post. You look fantastic. You are TINY. Can you stand it??!!!! Thanks for the Pep Talk, can't wait for that to be me.
  2. I really like what you said Mrs. McCabes. Good Advice to remember.
  3. My surgery was 4/8/2010 Out Patient in San Diego! All is well, no problems!
  4. LOVED This Story! hah! I can't wait to have this problem!
  5. Hi: I was banded on thursday at 201.5 #s, so I will weigh in on Friday's as well. (I just can't seem to get a banner going) do you paste on the signature set up?
  6. I have back pain in the center of my back behind my ribs. I'm guessing it's gas. (it feels like I need to crack it all the time) I also have a feeling of fullness when I breathe in what feels like my diaphram (I'm guessing it's my stomach being banded). Just not sure of all these feelings. . . .I will definetly walk more though. oh ya, I have been seriously bloated from the start, but each day has gotten better (day 4)
  7. Hi: Banded Yesterday!!!! Can't believe it's done! All went well, not too much gas so far, I hope the worst is over. Just having trouble getting out of bed with the sore stomach muscles. Nothing a sip or two of Vicodine doesn't help!
  8. i'm having surgery on Thursday in an outpatient facility in La Jolla . My bmi is 34 and I am self pay. . .so. . . .it is cheaper as well as the insurance companies are not dictating where. Good Luck to us!
  9. My surgery date is April 8th! I have gone from excited, to very very anxious. I have been doing alot of second guessing and thinking about trying one more diet. But, I know I've already done one more diet too many times. I am so scared about not eating! Isn't that stupid. I also am going on vacation for 1 week, when I get back I will only fast for 4 days! That scares me that it's not enough when I read everyone else has had two weeks to 1 month fasts! My Dr. is Well thought of in my area, so I trust he knows what he's talking about. . . .but I'm still a little panicked about that whole thing!
  10. I found all your comments comforting. I am Pre-Op (Apr 8th) and starting to freak out. "What am I doing" "Do I really want to deal with this". I am very encouraged by your comments, Thanks
