hoping you have a speedy recovery.

You'll be fine! SHHHH don't tell anyone, I went to mexico

10/15/03, had surgery on the Thursday the 16th, flew back home on Monday, felt good enough to be intimate with my better half on Tuesday. :banana

As of date I am down 44 lbs since the start of OCT.

You'll be just fine

Your about to start a new journey. Congratulations:D

Our thoughts are with you. Keep us posted

Hi Teri,

You and I are one day apart from our entry to Bandlandia. I am scheduled for Tuesday. I hope your surgery is quick and painless. Be sure and check in when you are feeling up to it. I know I will be looking to hear from you since we are so close in our surgery dates.

I think I am going through the "last supper" syndrome. I have been trying hard not to get carried away, but it is difficult. I don't think I have the frame of mind that I won't be able to eat certain foods after being banded, but I am dreading the clear liquid stage which starts on Monday for me.

Keep in touch.:confused:

Good luck...I'm sure you will love Dr. Boutt. Also, all of the nurses there are extremely nice. One suggestion....as soon as you wake up, Walk, walk, walk and then walk some more. Walk as much as you can around that circle. The nurses will encourage you to walk. They are right about how much faster you will heal. It will help get all the gas out and you will be in MUCH less pain. You won't feel like walking, but it will be so worth it!!!!!
