Its not even the fear of the surgery its self; I am not really scared of that. My husband has been acting like I'm going to the electric chair or something!

It kind of creeps me out how much attention he is paying to me right now. Its not like I'm having brain surgery or anything.

He's supposed to be easing my fears and now I'm the one having to reassure him that everything will be okay! lol

I'm just ready to get this over with and start my journey full force. I hope the next 2 days just fly!

Ok, I got a little bit more than four hours of sleep and I'm feeling pretty good.

I'm already at the surgery center and waiting for the nurse to start on me. Surprisingly I am calm.

The receptionist told me that they have had 16 year olds get banded! Seems crazy to me.

I hope your surgery went well. I found the muscle milk light chocolate was good as a Protein shake. It is already prepared in like a juice box. 22g of protein.

Good Luck everyone, I am very scared.

I hope your surgery went well. With your pre-opt dieting you will do fine. Good luck!

My surgery is June 29 also. I live in Hawaii so you will all be done before I wake up. Having my last sips of clear chicken broth. Had protein shakes for prior 6 days. Before that I was on a high protein, low fat eating plan for about 2 months to shrink my liver for surgery. I drink Spiru-tein shakes from our local health food store, they also carry them at GNC. I love them. I hate the chewable vitamins! Yuck. and I don't like the Isopure I have to drink today and the next 3 days. Horrid! I am nervous but not backing out. Been plotting this for the last year. Finally. Good luck ladies. I will be anxious to check in 'after'. Best wishes to all.
