I am having my lap band surgery in 16 days. I am getting a little worried. I know this is what I want to do and I know that all change is hard. Any words of support would be great.

:rolleyes2:

It is an awesome tool if you're committed to a lifestyle change. A properly adjusted band combined with exercise and eating reasonably will shed your unwanted fat slowly but surely.

Good luck!

I felt the same way before my lap band. Its normal to feel worried..it still IS a surgery. The morning of I was shaking..I never had any kind of surgery before. But my dr was there before I went under and he calmed me a lot. Talk to him to let him ease even up to that very minute. Its over and ur awake before u know it and the rest of the day is the easy part..bc ur on pain meds..lol. But don't worry its over before u kno it. Comes and goes fast. You"ll be fine. Also..reading success stories on this site helps a lot too. Everyone here really helped ease my jitters. Can't wait to hear all about ur surgery when its over and see the new you! Cheers

It really is normal to worry, it's surgery after all. The fact is you are doing something great for yourself. Just relax, follow doctors orders and you will do great!

You deserve to be healthy!
