Hi all!! I wish i could of started posting earlier once i started the pre-op process. My surgery is on 8/13/10 and i'm freaking out. I've never had surgery in my life nor was i ever in the hospital. This has been a loooog journey for me and even longer once i have the surgery. I've gotten mixed reviews on LAP-BAND® compared to gastric bypass. A lot of people say it doesn't work as good. I just don't want my stomach sliced in half...ewww!....I have been writing a journal to keep up with my thoughts through this process. Wish me luck! :thumbup:

Good Luck Sultana!! I'm sure everything will be good for you. Keep poking around in the forum and you will see many people who were/are just as nervous and you and things are going well for them.

Best of luck! I'm 8 days post-op and doing well. The 1st few days can be rough, but once you get over that everything starts to fall into place.

Thanks, it's great to hear positive responses. One thing i'm worried about is adjusting to it and the eating. I took 2 weeks off from working..hoping it would be enough time to recover....

Good Luck tomorrow!!! (well technically today!) You will do great! I am 3 weeks post-op and feeling great!

Praying all went well and cant wait too see the updates!
