My lap band surgery date is July 5. And I am so nervous, I pushed the date back from June 7 to this date. I don't really have the support I did when I was preparing for it. That's why I came on here.

This site is an awesome place for support. You made a smart choice in recognizing you not having the support you need. We are all here when ya need someone :)

You are so right!!

I'm so glad I found this place! This will be so important once I get banded to be able to find support from other people that are or have gone through the tough things I'll be going through.

Yes I am! It's taken a lot of nerves to actually go for the operation as I have an immense fear of being put under, it's the reason why I have gotten so big because I have been putting it off because of my fear, it's like I panic because i think what if i don't wake up? or what if panic when I wake up because i can't breathe or see properly. This all may sound so irrational but it's very real for me and it's the worst panic ever.

I am cloustrophobic so that is where this fear stems from.

But because i am the heavest i have ever been i can feel my health going down I have decided that enough is enough.

My surgey date is on the 12th of july! so not long at all and I am will be on the milk diet for two weeks!

So I hope they will be able to give me a pre sedative before i go for surgery so i relax and try not run out of the hospital!

Sorry this post is a bit long but i havn't spken to anyone yet who is going to go through this so it will be nice to talk to others in my situation! :)

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

      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

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
