Just got my band date: 3/17311

I am so excited! I just had my initial meeting with Dr. and team, am set up with surgery on the 17 of March, and I can not wait. My head is spinning, I have been thinking about this for some time and it just seemed to come together so quickly once I became determined to do this (that was at the end of this January). I actually got my surgery call last Friday and they wanted to set the surgery up for this Friday! Whew! I had to wait for spring break though, so I wouldn't miss much school. Any words of wisdom or advice will be welcome. Hope everyone is doing well and that it goes this easy for everyone else.

I have my date for this friday the 4th. I think I am more anxious than excited. I am dreading the recovery time, the soreness, but I am excited at the prospect of loosing the weight and getting my life back.

Best of luck with your surgery. Let us all know how it goes.

I will be thinking about you and hoping that the recovery goes well and that you aren't too sore. I feel that I have spent the last 20 years of my life overweight and am ready to make a change and hopefully this will be the tool that I am most successful with. I hope the same for you and all of us who are in this forum.
