Anyone Getting Banded In July?

My tentative surgery date is July 23rd because of my work schedule. It may change by a week but it looks like I'm gonna be a July baby. Anyone else out there that will be banded in July?

Good luck LadyBC' date=' you seriously took the time this morning before your procedure and wrote a post!!!??? You are fearless. I had to be at the hospital at 6am and between 5 and 6 I was not thinking about LbT. I am sending warm wishes, good thoughts and prayers your way. Today is the first day of the rest of your life....corny, I know.

Thanks so much! I had to be there this morning at 5:45! I was so excited that I haven't slept all nigh! My husband was driving to the hospital my insurance told me to go 45 min away so I needed something to keep me focused so I didn't break down and cry!!! Crying from pure happiness of course!

How are you feeling!? I have a lot of gas pain right now, but it is more under my sternum and around to my sides under my ribs! So I am praying that everyday from here I will get better and better! Also very tired!

By the way I too have been saying that today is the first day of my life....not corny!!
