i have my EKG, Upper GI and blood labs this morning. I'm all registered with the hospitial and have my final pre op appt with the surgeon on 8/30. On 9/11 @ 10:45am i will be banded. Now just need to get through the 10 liquid diet which i start on 9/1.

That's fantastic! Your team works fast I am done with pre-op testing and just need my final doc visit!!! Then 2 weeks liquid and Protein shakes. I'm getting so anxious, but in a good way! I want to get started instead if just talking about it. Good luck to you with everything & I'm sure we will meet on here again. We are being banded around the same time. Hurray!

Great news! I had to attend a weight reduction seminar by my doctor, and a dietian weight seminar spaced 1 month apart, plus a Physc evaluation as well as the lab tests.

Congratulations! Banded Aug 6.

I, too, had my pre-ops. One more weigh-in, consents and, of course, insurance approval to go!!

We are getting so close everyone!!!

I am having surgery the same day! Good luck with the pre-op diet!

I wanted to post yesterday once I got home but my computer monitor Is on the fritz, and I want feeling so good after the upper gi. Ask the testing went fine but I have to say having the upper gI was the worse part. Those things they make you drink should be outlawed. They are awful too say the least. I'm glad that's behind me. I'm waiting for thursday to meet with the surgeon one last time before surgery. I'll keep you posted.

Sorry for the incorrect words on my post I'm sending my response from my Iphone and boy is it touchy. That's what happens when your monitor doesn't work lol
