I am super excited ... Nervous... Anxious... So many mixed emotions... I've never had surgery before and now I am set to be banded in 7/24... I do not have a preop diet I have to follow.... I have been waiting for a long time for this and I can't believe it is finally happening... Any suggestions out there from anyone will be greatly appreciated...

Hey! I'm being banded July 22nd! I'm jealous you don't have a pre-op diet haha! I'm on mine right now. SO far this is what I have gotten from people around here, and of course all my consultants. Gas-X strips is the number one thing I've been hearing about, make sure you have some for after surgery, A heating pad and make sure you have all of your after surgery liquids! Hopefully the next two weeks go by quickly for the both of us! July banders! I can't wait to hear how everything goes!

So exciting to have someone right behind me! Please keep me updated and let me know how it goes for you... Thank you for the list of things that I should gather before surgery... Hope the preop diet goes well and you don't loose your cool ???‹
