Less Than 10 Hours Before I Am To Be Banded!!!!

I am headed to the hospital and have my appointment for 6:30am!!!!! I am SUPER excited! And Super nervous! I am hoping I will be home by tomorrow night...but if not, I am planning on updating here tomorrow night...and will have my computer with me at the hospital. I am hoping that I have very little soreness and NO GAS pains or shoulder pains. I also am hoping my blood pressure behaves itself! Of course, I do hope that my body does well with my band...You all have been so GREAT for me, and I feel like we are family! Thank you all so much!

good luck 6 weeks and 40 lbs lighter

3 years and 106 pounds lighter. Good luck and I hope everything goes well.

I am due at the hospital in 11 hours! How do I feel? Well, sort of terrified! I am not soo afraid of the surgery but now that the reality of it is just around the clock..... I hope I can handle it. I had a glass of wine with dinner. When I was done, I poured the rest of the bottle down the drain. How weird! I am going on a cruise in two weeks (clearly planned before my surgery!!) and the doctors assures me I will be fine. It's funny, how you can want something so badly but, when the reality of it is near.... careful what you wish for. Well Good luck to all of us who will be changing our lives tomorrow!!
