I am scheduled to be banded Jan 28th. Very excited and a little nervous to be honest. Pre op appointment in a few weeks.

Nervous is normal! Congratulations on getting a date!

Great !!!

Ask lots of questions !!!

Any advice to prepare myself or my skin?

I feel like I need to run out and eat everything that I won't be able to eat when I am banded. How pathetic is that! Worse is that I started doing it and gained a few more pounds... Ugh!

Jewel... just take it one day at a time.

Don't go into this journey saying "i'll never be able to eat this or that ever again"... eat each person is different.

I can eat ANYTHING except rice and apple skins... and no carbonated beverages.

Have you read the post I posted to New Bandsters?

This is great site for information.
