Hi! I also have a date of December 1st! I'm very excited and nervous about the surgery but can't wait! I have my pre-op and final nutrition class tomorrow. No mandatory pre-op diet but I do need to lose 10 pounds before surgery...which I'm still working on! Glad we share the same date...here's to our new start in 2011!

Don't be everything will be fine. I'm worried too and a bit stressed, but everything will be fine. It's just NERVES.

Good luck to you all. I was banded on 09/08/10. When I did my protein diet, I took a protein supplement that had 42 grams of protein. The first day was worst, because I didn't have the supplement, but when I used the supplement, I didn't have any problems with being hungry.

Hi All!

I'm scheduled for 12/1 which is TOMORROW YAY!!!! I can't wait until I'm a "post-op" ALL SMILES OVER HERE :D :D

How did it go for those who were banded today?

Best wishes for a speedy recovery!
