I report to the surgical suite at 7:15am(central time). I have so many emotions...excited, scared, nervous, ready for new me!! This is the beginning of a new me for my family...my husband and my 3 wonderful children. My two oldest know what's going on..they are 12 and 10. My daughter Camdyn told me tonight she is ready for her new skinny mom who will be able to run 5k with her! How sweet she is...she even prayed over me.

Well wish me luck!

It has been three days since my banding and I am having pain in my shoulder, stomach, back, and neck and sides.. I thought the doctor was going to keep me overnight.. I was out of it for almost the entire day.. My husband has been a jerk... He told me to suck it up and stop acting like a few holes in my stomach is causing that much pain.. I have never been so disgusted with him... I wonder why my self esteem is the way it is..

I haven't had any fills done as of yet, but waiting to see huge loss within the next few months... Oh, the pain and no SUPPORT system AT ALL!

sorry you don't have a good support system....that stinks that your husband is being nasty....try to stay positive and know that you have the love and support of people on this board.....i hope you're feeling a bit better tonight....if you ever need someone to talk too, i'd love too....keep me posted on your success:)))))

Hello Kim,

Thank you for responding!.. It brought tears to my eyes knowing that I am not alone. There is a place to vent my frustration without discussing my marital issues with my parents and neighbors.. This platform is an outlet for me and I Thank you for your kind words and encouragement!
