December 7th for me but I am not so enthusiastic as everyone else. In fact I am quite scared and nervous and a little ancy, anyone else feeling like this?

I'm nervous, sure. But I've worked toward this for so long, now that it's only a few days away, I can't wait. I'm embracing the nerves, because I've read about so many others here who have been through this, I know I'll be fine. I have a great surgeon I like and trust, and I know I'm in good hands. My family and friends are supportive, I've arranged for at least two weeks off work to recover, and I'm absolutely resigned to make this a success. Everything else is just details. ;)

I'll be smiling all the way into the operating room.

Hey everyone! I am new to the boards, but I am getting my band on December 20th!! I am stoked but nervous. I am very much looking forward to finding people from the boards or what not for support! Good luck to everyone else who is waiting or already had them done this past week.

Cheers!

I was banded December 6th as well. It's now Day 4 and I'm doing surprisingly well. The journey continues. Good luck to everyone!

I'm being banded tomorrow and I'm so nervous but I'm also so excited! I skipped out on a Christmas family get together today just so I wouldn't want to eat lol I am very blessed though that I had a surgeon that only made me do a clear liquid diet the day before surgery which is today. So, surgery tomorrow then I start full liquids Tuesday. I'm hoping I can live off of pudding, yogurt, Popsicles, hot cocoa, and Protein Shakes for two weeks! Good luck to those pre and post!! I'm ready to get this over with. I've never had anesthesia or any type of surgery. Like not a broken bone or never had a tooth pulled. That's what I'm mostly afraid of but when my wedding gets here and next Christmas when I look in the mirror it will be all worth it!!

yay for another 12/20 band buddy! i am actually glad my preop diet was 2 weeks so the post op wasn't such a shock to my system. anyone else have a lot of bruising at their incision site? mine looks like i got sucker punched or hit in the gut with a baseball, lol. i have been really good on moving and getting up and around, but i got sick the day of surgery so i am afraid to eat or drink much.

i actually had someone notice the weight loss yesterday! it was awesome! it is all about the litle things.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
