I booked my surgery today!! April 19 is my band date!!! I am excited to have finally made the decision, but after I got off the phone I sort of starting freaking out!!! Please tell me this is normal and at least some of you have always felt this way!! I have been reading and researching and praying and pro and cons, and I decided this was the best decision for me, so now that it is a reality why am I freaking out???

Totally Normal, and it is about a 30 minute surgery. Not a big deal at all so relax........ Go to you tube and see what's done. It's really nothing.

Your emotions are normal. We work so hard to get that surgery date and once all the push and shove is done, the reality of it all starts to settle in. It is an exciting and frightening time. Take time to breathe and know that we are here to help in any way that we can. April will be here in no time!

I freaked out completely when I got my date!! It's all normal!

I got my date yesterday--april 18, its an emotional time, you wait and wait and wait and then when it happens its like, is it really real? I am giddy with excitement one minute and a little nauseas the next. I figure its just another phase of the process, Hang in there you're not alone!
