Hiya just wondering if anyone is getting banded in June and if so how are you feeling im an excited nervous wreck obsessed with getting the surgery it seems as though every other:thumbup: word out of my mouth is when i get my surgery this and surgery that lol 8 weeks to go whooo hoooo

I am getting banded on the 18th too and I've lost 7.5 lbs as well! Crazy. I am excited one minute and scared to death the next. It would be nice to keep in touch since we have the same dates :confused: Tesa- Illinois

I'm really excited, surgery date June 9th, On day 8 of pre-opt diet 10lbs down and one week away from the beginning of a healthier life style.:confused:

I just got my date yesterday...June 21st. On day two of liquid diet. Im nervous anxious scared and hungry. If I had known sunday was to be my last real meal.... now all I have are the memories. Anyhow here's to past memories and new hopes for the future.

Tomorrow June 3rd is my big day... I am super excited.

My surgery date is June 9th. I am so excited. I am not really nervous although I might start to get nervous as it gets closer to going to the hospital. I am having such a hard time with the pre op liquid diet-I am so hungry and cranky. But-this is all worth it b/c I will be getting my life back and to who I used to before my weight took over my life. I also keep talking about my surgery a lot-my boyfriend is starting to get annoyed. Good luck all June Bandsters! ( And all other months too, of course:) ). It would be neat if there was a group for June Bandsters, so we could all go through this at the same time--anyone know of any Yahoo Groups or is anyone interested in starting one up?

Hello, I am also scheduled for June 14th :biggrin:. I am a bit nervous about the pre-op diet that I start this coming Sunday. Has anyone else had problems with the pre-op diet?

I started my pre-op 2 week diet yesturday. I did ok but real HUNGER has kicked in today:cursing:!! I'm going to start my dinner in a few minutes. 4 oz. fish with a small salad. I'll probably inhale it :biggrin:. Yikes????

Im on day 2 of my liquid diet. As they say, the only easy day was yesterday. Im taking Muscle Milk, broth (chicken, beef and Vegtable) sugar free jello and pudding. I think the secret is not waiting until you are starving, but once you start to feel hungry, to have one of your "food" sources. The muscle milk keeps me going for about an hour or two. In between time I have jello and water. Am I full- no. Is it fun-no, but it is bearable.

Hi, i was banded yesterday June 1st. The surgery went smooth & well. Only pain yesterday aside from the soreness was the gas pain in my shoulders and back. Today I have pain/stinging I assume where my port is. Trying to not focus on the pain. I have drank water, ate jello, broth, and protein Myoplex. Have not had nausea or anything like that. I am hoping the small amount of pain i am feeling goes away quickly.

i getting on 6/9/10. cant wait till after the fill so it should start working.

looking forwardto be able to go shopping for nice colored outfit!

I am banded was much easier than expected.
