Tomorrow's the BIG DAY!!! I can't believe its finally here!



Recommended Posts

I can't believe the day is finally here that I've been waiting for, for so long!!! My surgery is at 9:45 tomorrow at St. Agnes in Baltimore, we have to be there 2-hours ahead so that means we'll have to leave home around 5:30am. I live in Delaware, so its about a 2-hour drive, which isn't going to be fun. Trying to get my husband out of bed that earlier, really isn't going to be fun! LOL

I started thinking back when I first started looking into the band, and it was around 2003. It's now 2011, and I'm finally making it happen!! I'm so excited, but so nervous at the same time! I just hope the pain isn't too bad, I'm a big baby when it comes to pain! Anyhow, please keep me in your prayers as I keep all others in mine.

Thanks so much to everyone!!! This site is great for encouragement and support!! For those that are close to your date, best of luck to you! To those who still have a ways to go, just remember we've all been in your shoes and totally understand what its like to wait and wait. In fact, I was suppose to have surgery on May 27th and got a call the week before that said the insurance company denied it. To make a long story short, I had to change doctors and now having my surgery in Baltimore. But in the long run, I'm sure God knows best and that's the way I accepted it. To those who have already been banded, continued success to you!! I'm sure I'll be back on over the weekend, so I'll let you know how things go!!

Thanks a bunch for your support and God Speed to you all!

It's funny but I think I'm nuts if I don't do it.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks
