Hello,

My name is Linda and I am from Los Angeles, Ca. So... I will be getting banded this thursday! Yikes! Im quite nervous, but I try not to think about it too much! I have started my liquid diet today! Hope everything turns out well. I try not to think about it too much but my whole family and close friends keep on asking me everyday if I am ready for my surgery! I have no idea what to answer cuz im full of mixed emotions at this point. I am nervouse because of the whole surgery thing. but i am excited cuz i cant wait to start loosing weight!!! Did anyone feel the same way I did just before surgery? I hope im not the only crazy one out there!

Hi Linda!! I think you and I were posting our introductions at the same time. Wow, the 27th is only two days!! I am scheduled for Feb 9th, so I'll be watching to see how things go for you. I feel the same way you do, very nervous, but excited. I am resigned to the fact that this is really the only thing that will work long term for me, and I want to be healthy for my son, so it will all be worth it in the end. Good luck on your surgery, and keep us posted!!

I am with you all the way.. i am excited yet scares... I am still waitin on the actual date... but it should be in march sometime...lol

They just called me to let me know all do's and don'ts for surgery!!!!Ok! Thanks for making more nervous!!!lol
