I know there's a special section for this, but it doesn't seem to be too popular so I'll give it a whirl here..

Anyone here to be banded in February besides me?

My surgery date is February 15th.

Feel free to add me on Facebook for support, etc. =]

B- minus 11 hours......Yes, folks, I have 11 hours until I have to be at the hospital for my surgery!

I have to be at Palms of Pasadena Hospital on St Pete Beach/ Gulfport tomorrow at 7:00 a.m. I am 4th in line for the surgery. I am so nervous I don't know what to do with myself. I haven't had my last supper yet, but I will soon. Have packed my little bag and am almost ready to roll. It takes an hour to get to the hospital so my son Tommy is going to sleep over and drive me down there in the morning. Alarm is set for 5:00 a.m.

Good Luck Greekie!!!! I was banded at Palms of Pasadena on Friday the 3rd. They were AMAZINGGGG!!!

Who is your surgeon??? I had Dr Rehnke. If you have him, they tried to send me home WITHOUT pain meds and it was a BAD idea. MAKE SURE YOU GET PAIN MEDS!!!!

But everyone in the surgical team was so incredible!!! Best of Luck to you

Good Luck Greekie!

Good luck! mine is thursday morning.

Good luck

Good luck Greekie. I should be in bed right now but can't sleep. My surgery is at 9:30 and have to be at hospital at 7:30. Wonder what it's like on the other side! lol Last time I had surgery my granddaughter told me not to go towards the light! Hahahaha!! She was only 6 at the time! Too funny!

I wish you the best of luck in the a.m. and take her advice again. we want to hear all about your journey when you are able:)

Good luck all!Mine is Friday, as long as I am feeling up to it... I find out tomorrow whether I have a bacterial or a viral infection. I'm thinking it might be best to postpone the surgery, but I'm afraid that if I do, I will end up never having it done. . Wish me luck that I am feeling better in time to have the surgery!

8 days to go, and I have already 10 lbs. I started my pre-diet a week early. Good luck to everyone, and best wishes. I am so excited for all of us!!

Im having my endoscopy to verify I have a hernia.....stupid insurance.....and then my lapband on the 17th...even if I have to self pay.....im fed up with insurance hoops....
