Any doubts, fears? I am excited but a little scared about the unknown - This site helps to answer questions but I guess at the end you just need to go do it...

You are In my prayers...

Yes! March 8. I'm finishing up what I have come to think of as my Farewell to food Tour, which was not a smart idea but I did it. So Monday I am to begin a better eating and exercise routine. I am nervous but excited about it all. Just got the date yesterday.

LB date March 12, 2010 and started pre-op diet on February 19th, 3 days on pre-op so far so good. I am actually full and not starving, which helps a lot.

I am not nervous about the surgery but fearful of the unknown in a way. I want to be very successful and not fail!!

There is a march bandsters community at Spring into March where others have already gathered for support if you are interested.

Hey March 2010 folks. You are almost there. Welcome. I'm in my 4th year and very grateful, loving Banded Living. I'm really into paying it forward. Learned a lot on my journey. I posted a link to a list of things to stock up on before surgery that people that the February group found very helpful. Here' s the link from my blog:

Preparing #001: Things to Stock Up on Before the Day of Gastric Banding Surgery

Please let me know if you find it useful.

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
