Just drank my last protein shake pre surgery!!! Clear liquids only tomorrow and surgery 7:30 am Wednesday!! Nervous and Excited!

Was banded today (out patient) and not much discomfort. Left shoulder ache using heating pad helps 100%. A hiatal hernia was aslo fixed and more discomfort in the area. Taking liquid pain meds for hernia. Prior to hospital release I walked many minutes with a nurse.

My doctor didnt want me to use ice chnips for 24 hours. I see him on followup in 2 weeks.

Be positive and your day will be here soon.

Be positive and follow any and all doctor directions pre-op. Makes band day easy. Mine was easy. Very little discomfort except hernia repair. Banded 8 hours ago.

Rojasanoll glad you're doing so well. sounds like you're doing wonderful.Been thinking of ya.

I am being banded on the 10th. Doing good on the pre-op diet, but getting nervous on the surgery.

Just stay focused on what you are doing on Pre-op by eating right. I will be a 100% boost in your recovery state. Lots of protein and take all your vitamins. Have gas-x, Liquid Tylenol just in case. Make sure you have a heating pad and know where it is. I plugged mine on one day and checked it out. Have ice cubes for blender ready. Any food panty shelves, please use those for your lapand food items. For a few days you won"t feel like bending over, believe me. Being single, I purchased a pickup objects from Walgreen. It's mostly used by people who cant bend over and picks up lots of things off the floor/rub.

Best wishes on you day. It will be here quickly!

August 21st.... 2 weeks from today!! :) I can't wait!

August 13th!!

Good luck praying for you
