@ slm2007 We have the same date, been having butterflies in my tummy for the last couple of days. Good luck and all the best.

We are sharing butterflies - believe me! I'm breaking out in sweats etc. I'm not scared of the surgery part...that is nothing...I'm scared of my life after. I know it is for the better, BUT......we all know the "but" part. It's a great thing we are doing and it is going to be worth it. Good luck to you and we'll all say prayers for each other. Keep me posted on progress!

My date is April 11th! Excited and scared all rolled into one. I am not scared of the procedure I am scared about what if i don't lose any weight. :(

April 22!! I'm so excited :) I was supposed to be banded last year but found out I was pregnant...had a beautiful baby girl in January, and now I'm ready to go !! Good luck to everyone!

hi all-supposed to be banded with plication on friday-15th. very nervous and worried i am going to have to move my date-i was supposed to be doing protein shakes for 2 weeks prior but i completely failed last week----so now worried if one week of shakes will be enough to shrink my liver so they can do the procedure...

I am getting banded today! I am so nervous but I know God will take care of me! Please send prayers my way.
