I can hardly believe tomorrow at 9 am i will be getting banded im nervous and happy at the same time!!

Great!!! I will be banded Tuesday 6/19/12 at around 2pm and I am really anxious about getting it done, finally after all the battles you have to overcome to get to this point.

Best of luck to you on your surgery and your jouney to be healthy and thinner!!!

That is awesome. Just remember that when you wake up SIP the liquid they give you or you will be in pain. Also, make sure to take your pain meds and walk as much as you can. Try to sip every 15 mins or so to keep hydrated. I've had my band since 2/17/2012 and I love it. I've lost 38 lbs. Don't focus on weight loss the first 6 weeks this is a healing time. I didn't lose a pound! my 1st 6 weeks so just give your body time to heal. Good Luck!

Thanks everyone, i will keep yall posted after surgery

jc thankful has given you some sound advice. is tarted becoming frustrated cause every day i would step on teh scal and for the first 6 weeks i lost maybe.. 3 lbs.. i thought this wasnt working.. this is not great.. something is wrong.. allow you body the time to heal properly and dotn focus on weightloss. they gave me ice chips when i woke up.. liek jc thankful mentioned.. whatever liquid ur allowed to haave .. make sure ur utilizing it to keep hydrated. i had a nasty taste in my mouth.. ecck.. ignore it if you do and crunch away on the chips. buy some ice.. you know the italian ices.. sugar free of course.. for the days after sugery. it was very soothing going down.

good luck with everything..

I'll be right there with you, I have mine tomorrow at 7:30 AM tomorrow!! Good luck!

Good luck!!

to both of u.. GOOD LUCK

Good luck!
