Well my surgery is 4-20. I'm not nervous just anticipating the unknown. Reading a lot of post here is helping me understand what to expect and that we all are human. I should be on my liquid diet but have been eating palm size pieces of protein. I think life is testing me, everywhere I look food is popping out. M&Ms on sale, gathering of food trucks and pizza commercials !

Thanks to everyone for helping me in understanding what to expect. I know I'll be able to get through this and understand I'm only human when I make a mistakes.

I get banned on May 1st. So that is two weeks..OMG im scared shitless.. I have all theise thought about gaining weight and not being able to get banned. I know that this will be a lifestyle change and im going to embrace it because i know that i am destined for better. I PRAY that all go good for you, and I will be here to support you because lord knows i need support also......KEEP me posted on your recovery..

I'm getting banded on the 20th as well Reading all the posts for encouragement. Going to my pre-op doctors appointment today and then will go out and get all my supplies for post-op. I'm getting all my wash done so the family doesn't have to worry about it. I feel like I am prepping for the new person that will be coming home after surgery. Getting everything all ready so all I have to worry about is taking care of myself. So ready for this. Good luck everyone.
