Hey Ladies Congratulations on you girls that have your band now. I had my first pre op diet day and it was soooo hard. I hope it gets easier because I'm so starving !

It will! Read my posts and you'll laugh!

So I talked to the hospital and being that I have a cold and I'm on steroids the doc may postpone my surgery I'm so super bummed out I'm praying to god the doc will still be able to perform the surgery!

Keeping fingers crossed for you!

Just got my surgery date for Dec. 20th! I'm super excited and nervous! I'm in Houston, TX

YaY! I'm excited for you!!

It is 5 am and I an sitting in bed waiting on my 2:00 pm surgery.... Can you say ready to get started.

Today's the day! I'm getting ready now to head in to the surgical suite. I have to be there at 8:30 surgery at 9. I'll see you all on the other side!

Just joined last week. Surgery is Dec. 11

One week to go and a little spooked.

Pre-op diet has been a bit of a struggle as I have had the worst craving for peanut butter.

No, I haven't read the book. I am going to a reputable surgeon with a highly respected weight loss clinic.

I chose Lapband after consultations with the Bariatric surgeon as well as my Gastroenterologist. Neither recommends RNY or vertical sleeve because of other issues I have. I understand that there could be serious consequenses but in my case, the benefits outweigh the risks.

Thanks.

I'm happy to report that surgery went very well. I went into surgery at 9. Woke up around 10:30 from anesthesia and left to go home at 12. I've been able to lay in my bed on either side and sleep for and hour and a half at a time. I've been walking around a lot in between naps. I have no gas pains. My pain in my stomach just feels like I did a bunch of sit-ups. I'm also tolerating drinking fluids well and have had nausea. I hope the rest of the day continues this well. I have no regrets!

December 17th is my surgery day..can't wait!! <img src='http://www.bariatricpal.com/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />
