Alex, good luck tomorrow! It is so worth it! I'll be thinking about you and the other bandsters up for surgery tomorrow!

Best if Luck to you my surgery was going to be on 9/4, but I had to reschedule cause I came down with a sinus infection and Bronchitus the day I started the liquid diet....not nice! I was on so many meds I decided to push it to 9/18. Hope all goes well!!

Joann, good luck to you too! I'll be thinking about you!

Wishing you all the best tomorrow! As soon as you feel strong enough start walking and walking! It makes a big difference I think! I will be thinking of you around 8 tomorrow morning! Good Luck!

Best of luck to you! Remember to walk, walk, walk! It makes recover and gas go by much quicker!

Best of luck to you....don't worry relax and let your doctor and their staff take care of you!

Just be sure to follow directions.

You will be great!

Good luck to all of you on your day. It will be okay for everyone and good luck

Alex, good luck tomorrow! My surgery is on Thursday and I know how you feel about being excited, but really nervous too. I know that's normal. We just have to remind ourselves that we've done our research and made an informed decision and this is the beginning of an exciting, healthy new life. We can do it!

Hi Alex, let your doc and staff take care of you. Hopefully, you will get home today.

I see you are another Alabama girl. I am from Jacksonville. Where are you from?

Alex,

From one young bandster to another (or so it appears!) congratulations on making the leap! I had my surgery in April and it was hands down the best decision I ever made for myself! Follow the rules and take each day as it comes and you will do great! It's already changed my life and I am so grateful! Best of luck!
